New, had you not met them before? Or was this just the first time with the families meeting? I just did the whole "meet the family" thing too over Memorial Day weekend. I had met his parents before (both of whom I love!) but never his 3 sisters or their families (and I was much more afraid of that). We flew into Houston Thursday night, but left early Friday morning to go to their river house along the Guadalupe. The house was BEAUTIFUL! Friday night we had to go to a rehearsal dinner for his friend getting married in San Antonio. San Antonio was probably one of the coolest cities I've ever been to! Saturday was the wedding, which was beautiful. We took one of the little river boats from the wedding to the reception which was cool. The reception was right on the river walk. It was a really fun wedding and Andy and I were discussing things we're going to do the same/different haha. After the wedding we went out along the river walk, as we were walking I walked over what I thought was just a grate...little did I know, air was blowing out. I wasn't wearing underwear, and a group of about 10 Mexicans got a real nice shot of my bare ass...yea, that was fun. On Sunday we floated the Comal River, which is apparantly a big thing...picture Preakness on water. There were literally thousands of people just floating and drinking. Andy was in charge of the cooler and ended up getting a $300 for having too big of a cooler. How ridiculous is that?! What makes it really ridiculous is that they aren't even trying to limit alcohol. EACH person is allowed a 16quart cooler, which can hold an entire case of beer. Our cooler only allowed about 10 beers for each of us in our group. So they are actually increasing alcohol and the amount of coolers...seems pretty dumb to me. Made a pretty good story though. Almost as good of a story as Andy's friend bringing his stripper girlfriend who is technically still married to a half black half asian in georgia (that's the short of it at least). Monday we drove back to the Woodlands for a family BBQ where I met at the sisters. They were nice enough, but I didn't get to talk to them much. It was kind of weird though because I know how much they all LOVED his ex-wife (that is still so weird to say!), whom by the way I had to hear WAY too much about throughout the weekend. I swear it was all most of his friends talked about. Not like how much they liked her, more just giving him crap, it was still awkward though. Anyway, there are a few more stories, but I am rambling, I just wanted to tell a fwe of my stories to someone.

Anyway, I think I am going hom June 18th is and was planning on coming to MD that weekend if you guys are going to be around. Let me know what everyone's plans are. I hope it can work out, I miss you guys so much!

I had met his immediate family about a month into dating. His mom/dad/brother had never met my family, nor have I met his ENTIRE family or friends of the family. Thats coming in a few days...and apparently they aren't as supportive of us as we thought.

I'm glad you liked San Anton. I suggested we do a River Walk wedding but Jesse is against it. I never got to go tubing!!! I hear Texas water is really cold.

Andy is married? I can imagine why that makes you feel strange! I'm glad you guys are working out so well together.

hahaha no no no, he is not CURRENTLY married, he has been divorced for a couple of years...LOOOONG story. And the water really wasn't cold at all, and I'm such a baby about it being cold. Everyone was saying that it was warmer than usual though. And you should totally talk Jesse into a wedding on the River Walk!! It doesn't even have to be right on it, like this one was in a church right off it. Anyway, good luck with the entire family and family friends! Why aren't they supportive of you guys?
