After work on Friday, Steve and I packed up the car and drove over to Wenatchee to attend Ruthie and Jeff's wedding in Leavenworth. Delane and Kevin were kind enough to house eight of us at their beautiful home in East Wenatchee. Friday night included quite a few rounds of Speed Scrabble and Sing Star - I think I should probably be banned from ever participating in Sing Star again. Saturday morning, Delane treated us to an excellent breakfast and then we stopped by a friend of their's apple orchard to drop off their two sweet dogs, Timber and Wrigley. The smell of the fresh fall air out in the orchard was wonderful - it reminded me of the fall mornings in Pullman. After enjoying a red delicious apple hand-picked from the tree, we headed down for a tour of downtown Wenatchee and a trip to one of Steve's favorite stores Hooked on Toys - most ecclectic store I've ever been in. They sell things like camping/hunting gear, games, and then a huge selection of childrens toys...strange.
Ruthie and Jeff were married at 3:30 at the beautiful Sleeping Lady lodge in Leavenworth. The two of them are an amazing couple - they compliment each other perfectly and enjoy life to it's fullest. The venue, nestled back in the woods, accompanied by the sunny weather made for a perfect fall wedding. After the wedding festivities came to an end, we headed out to partake in the Oktoberfest celebrations in downtown Leavenworth.

Amy - Yes, I did know your parents lived in Wenatchee and I'm assuming your brother Mark lives there as well because I saw a sign on a dentist off for Dr. Mark Anderston :) My friends that we stayed with is a dentist as well and said that he recognized your brother name...small world!
Fun! So jealous of all your fall activities!
