Mom drove the girls and me to Target. We bought some things that we still need or want for the baby. Hokulani also got to use some of her birthday money to buy a tea (juice) set for 4 people. She was so excited. Hokulani carried the tea set around the store with her, and then she paid for the set herself.
After leaving Target, we went to Borders bookstore. Everyone stayed in the car while I went in. I had a coupon and wanted to buy the book, The Host, by Stephenie Meyer. I was excited to get it for less than expected, and at more of a discount than the coupon was for.
Jason's home teaching companion is Cary Martinez. Cary's wife is Joalice. Their son, David, got married today to Antonia. Jason and I attended their reception at the church building. I didn't want to go because I'm so uncomfortably pregnant, but decided to go to accompany Jason. I'm so glad I went after all.
The wedding couple was beautiful! They looked so good together, and happy. The bride's wedding gown was beautiful. I don't think Antonia speaks English. She is from Brazil. However, she was very friendly, and kept smiling even as we all visited and congratulated.
Here's a picture of David and Antonia taking a break from greeting everyone:
There were four wedding cakes on tiered stands. They looked good, but we didn't stay long enough to eat them.
Here's the wedding cake topper:
At the reception we also got to eat dinner. The food was delicious, and all of it was made by the Martinez's neighbor. She also did all of the decorations. Jason and I were disappointed in our ward members because not a lot of people attended the reception, but we were glad we made it.
