The Williams Family had a BUSY summer! We did the family vacation in May, purchased our home in June, moved into the house in July, had our summer convention in August and took a ten day vacation to the Midwest in September. Not to mention working on the house, dinner parties, my sister's recent visit....no wonder I am so exhausted! Here are some highlights from our September vacation. We began our voyage flying out of San Antonio for Chicago on September 4. Our good friends from UK Dental/Medical schools, Chrissy and Dave had a fabulous wedding in Chicago Labor Day weekend. They fully represented Dave's Scottish heritage with kilts and bagpipers. Chrissy celebrated being Egyptian with an amazing belly dancer performance. The wedding was a great representation of Chrissy's generally glamorous appearance. We loved the dental school reunion and can't wait to see everyone again!
Our dear friends, Matt and Laurie, graciously drove us from Chicago to Lexington to continue our vacation. We split our time between Georgetown, Lexington and Richmond. We spent several nights with our friends, catching up and sharing in good food. Emily and Nathan had a wonderful party for us during which she showcased her awesome hosting and cooking skills. We also took at trip to the Buffalo Trace Bourbon Distillery (Note: Buy their cream bourbon due to hit shelves April 2011. It is AMAZING.) and to the Berea Artisan Center where we bought authentic Kentucky BBQ sauces. We finished up our trip with Morgan and Seth's wedding in Lexington at Fasig Tipton--the same location of our wedding! It was great being back there and Morgan was a beautiful bride.
