Another chaotic day in the life of Dyana! First off, we had Ryder's soccer game {and of course today of all days, I was snack mom}. Then it was Jayden's game..which he almost made it but had to turn around because he was having bowel issues. Then we had to drop Sky off at football {again, I was snack mom for his game}. In between games, I ran into Steinmart, which I never go in, to see if I could find a dress to wear to the big wedding we had tonight! Luck was on my side. I found a dress in seriously 5 minutes, bought it, came home, showered, Jenn helped me with my make-up, and then Jim and I raced down to the Pelican Hill Resort in Newport for Claire and Stephen's {Marie Osmonds son} wedding reception. It was beyond gorgeous! The fanciest wedding I've ever been to! Tonight was also my 20th High School Reunion. I had no intentions on going! I didn't even think about going because I knew we had this wedding reception to go to. Throughout the day all my friends were texting me to come! I was beginning to get a little nostalgic and a little sad that I wouldn't see old friends. We got to the reception at 5. I had the most tender Filet Mignon with porcini mushroom sauce with garlic & rosemary mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach, but by 9:30 the dessert course still hadn't come. I looked at Jim and said let's do it! So off we went...to CRASH my 20th reunion at the Disneyland Hotel! I am so glad I did!! By the time we got there, everyone, but the 2 other Mormons: Stephen & Becca, were completely inebriated!! No one would have known I was crashing. We had planned on staying about 1/2 hour, next thing I know it's 12:30! We didn't get home till 2:00 a.m. but it was a great night and I'm so glad we were able to manage both events!

Look at us..the party animals!
