Bachelorette Party and "The Hair"

For Angie's bachelorette party, we decided to do desserts at The Garden on Temple Square in SLC. Dan and Angie had their 2nd first date (3 years later) at this restaurant and, with a rooftop view of the Salt Lake Temple and an open ceiling with a beautiful view of the stars, it was the perfect setting.

We all chatted and ordered desserts while Angie answered questions about she and Dan. My favorite was her answer to "What is one of your pet peeves about Dan?" She replied that "pet peeve" was too strong a word but that one thing she noticed about Dan was his tendency to be tardy. She said she's figured out a way around it though. She said, you can't rush Dan along (boy is that the truth) but you can get him to skip things e.g. "you don't need to shave, you look just fine" etc.

Becky and I were seriously impressed and not a little embarrassed that we lived with him for 20 years and never figured that out. (Guess that's what happens when you marry a scientist. She's always problem-solving.) :)

I knew when she said that (and all the other sweet things she said about Dan) that they were going to be blissfully happy. Love you Angie!

Fast-forward to the morning of the wedding. Becky and I met Angie at her house to do her hair for the wedding. Becky and I are certainly not hair-pros and there was a fair amount of nail-biting on our way there, hoping we wouldn't mess up the bride's hair on her wedding day. However, we pulled ourselves together and were happy to perform our sisterly duty. Here is the result (above). We were pretty proud of our efforts and thought Angie's hair looked beautiful.
