Tay & Libb - The Wedding - Part II

Between the wedding ceremony and reception the guests had a little downtime.  There was a spread of appetizers, which we all enjoyed.  Then a group of us decided to take a little break off our feet for a bit in the house.  We just happened to sit right next to the liquor cabinet... shots anyone?

Amy, Selena and Samara decided to tackle a shot of vodka... too bad it was hot vodka... oh well, what's done is done!

Did we mention the food?  Jere just LOVED the meatballs (and he wasn't the only one)... of course Anthony and Amy didn't partake...

Photo op!  Jason and Selena looking so cute!

And of course, no evening is complete without some furniture surfing... thanks Nicky D!!

Later, after dinner was served, toasts were made and the dance floor started bumping, a few of us thought the evening called for a little boat ride.  So Anthony, Amy, Nick, Jeremy, and Samara ventured out onto the lake.  This photo was taken before Jeremy started driving like a wild man and almost made us all pee our pants...  you can tell by how happy Nick and Amy still look...

When we finally got on dry land again, Amy was so excited that it overwhelmed her and she went a little crazy... as evidenced here by the petunia eating experiment... sure hope they aren't poisonous...

Arrr... not so tasty...

Of course Jere had to give the flowers a try too...

We all made our way to the dance floor.  Anth and Amy thought it was a good time to pay tribute to Corey Hart and wear our sunglasses at night...

Thanks to Mix Master Larry for getting in trouble with the DJ and making us all laugh...

Random pose with Taylor, Jason and Darrin...  Looks like we're at a club, minus the tux on Tay...

WARNING:  Bromance, straight ahead!

Nick, Amy and Anth photo op...

Oh, make a funny face...?  Ok, Amy can do that...

And of course, no event at the Benezra house is complete until Jeremy jumps into the pool from the second floor balcony...  Luckily, he made it down safely again this time...

So a strange part of the evening started just after those vodka shots.  Amy took a seat and this random dude came out of nowhere and sat next to her.  We're all sitting together with the family and this stranger just comes up and says, "So, tell me how it is I know you."  And Amy thinks, "Hmm... what kind of pick up line is this...?"  and says, "I'm gonna go with... you don't"  So this mystery guy spends a short time trying to convince Amy that he knows her from somewhere, but she's not buying it.  He finally goes on his way.  Later, she sees him walking around at dinner and it dawns on her that he does look familiar somehow... but is that just cuz he was sitting next to her moments ago?  So she asked Nick who the guy was and his name sounded vaguely familiar... so she went and talked to him later in the night... and as it turns out they attended UW together and were in the same FIG (freshman interest group) their first quarter of college.  His name is Dan and they had Chemistry, English 101 and Math 120 together.  It seems that even after 10 years, if you spent all day with someone for 3 months you'd remember them eventually...  Thanks, Dan, for helping to solve our Mystery of the Night...
