the Four Seasons

We spent a weekend in Dallas recently. John's cousin Shannon was married and it was a wonderful weekend. We took the whole family including Mom and Dad. We flew and Mullah and "Z" were waiting to get our bags and get us all into the cars. They drove us to the resort and we unpacked. Mom and Dad took the girls to the pool where they ate dinner and I think played in the sand. Salt water pools are the way to go. Much gentler on little girls hair. We were off to the rehearsal dinner. It was a beautifully decorated building and the food was fabulous.
Back to the resort and the girls are in bed. Yay! The next morning we all had breakfast together...Mom, Dad, Judy, Dick, VJ and Jean, John Crew (Shannon's dad) came down to make sure we were all having a nice time. The girls loved the pancakes, crepes, yogurt with berries and granola and the juice. They used very good manners and we were very proud.
The breakfast buffet was delicious but they had a full menu too. So many pastries, fruits, Gravlax, crepes....too many.
We swam for a while and then had Tea at Cafe' on the Green. The girls felt very fancy and used their best manners. It was fun for me. They are lovely little ladies and they showed us their best behvior that day. I am so proud of them. I think they truly enjoyed it too.
The wedding that night was at Highland Park Presbyterian Church. It's a beautiful church. Shannon was gorgeous and the music was lovely.
The reception was back at the Four Seasons. Let me tell you, it was exquisite. They had the most delicious hors d'oeuvres. Vicki and her assistant decorated the entire ballroom. It was so beautiful. The tenderloin they served was the best I have ever had. It was RARE!! You don't often get tenderloin cooked so well when at a party serving 500 plus.
Mullah and Z came for us about noon on Sunday. We were riding with Mullah and Anneliese said to him, "I like your car. I want to be a rock star and I want you to drive me all over the world." Mullah agreed it was a great idea and that he would. There you have it.
