Oct. 10th:
The morning started off bright & early with coffee, omellettes and the arrival of Craig's girl, Ashley. She just jumped off a red-eye. Apparently, she's a morning person.
|
Craig, Cote, Coop & Ashley took a day trip to the FOUR ROSES distillery in Kentucky. Their quest, buy some awesome bourbon straight from the source.

Coop seems very interested in the "Probe Sampling" aspect of this area. Though moisture testing sounds pretty dirty too.

I can only imagine that they were celebrating the fact that they were about to get free samples. That or someone was playing the national anthem.

Oct. 10th:
As the day wore on, people started arriving for the all important -- REHEARSAL (with dinner to follow)
|
Ice! Andrew and Cote handily saved the rehearsal dinner by stopping by the store to get supplies... including ice. Which Smidty was very excited about.
|
|
Jason tested the newly minted dance-floor by... tap dancing.
|
Coop showed him up... by stepping. I think. It's either that or a seizure.
|
At the rehearsal, Ava once again proved -- she was the coolest one there.
|
|
"You will respect my authori-teh!"
|
Alexandra & Abigail were all too happy to try on their fairy wings. Not angel wings. Cause, well, you have to earn those. ;-)
|
Meanwhile, Beth foolishly let her child tie her to a tree. I think he left to collect wood and matches.
|
|
Alexandra looks a little to happy to see her sister tied up.
|
As the rehearsal started, Kris' mother, Carol, proved she can't help but mug for the photo. Well, she'll mug for anyone, really. A camera doesn't even have to be there. It's when she's alone doing this that we get worried.
|
Notice that ALL the groomsmen have beer. The rehearsal was already going well.
|
|
|
Rachel had to point her father in the right direction for their march down the aisle. For some reason, he kept going the opposite direction.
|
Leah, caught paying attention at the rehearsal.
|
|
Pooja, caught paying attention at the rehearsal.
|
As the rehearsal ended, Rachel's father once again came up and tried to steal his daughter away. She told him to go sit down.
|
Beer... check. Next.
|
|
Two crushed beers? Impressive. Next.
|
Beer... check. Now, where's Cote's other hand?
|
As the sun set over the farm, we moved from rehearsal to rehearsal dinner.
Thanks to all, including Cote, who BBQ-ed for us under the tent. Oh, and thanks to Jason for setting the tone of the evening by being the first to roast... er toast... Rachel and myself.
|
|
After the toasting was done... it was time for a smoke-break. Oh, and Cynthia had a chance to prove she's "Sure".
|
After the rehearsal dinner concluded, the groomsmen & bridesmaids split to their separate locations.
And Coop claimed his bed.
|
Ashley must have pinched a nerve. His face was stuck like that for a while.
|
|
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the girls played their own little game of cards.
|
And then had an orgy.
