Steve (my brother) and Claudia were married in Hawaii on July 22nd of this year. Seeing as most of us were unable to attend the glorious event, they had a Minneapolis reception at the Lafayette Club on the shores of Lake Minnetonka. What a fabulous evening for this very fun event. The weather could not have been more perfect. Gunnar's Godmother Lisa watched the boys for us so that Orn and I could have a night out on our own. We went to the reception with John (another brother) and his wife Deb. As we pulled up the the Lafayette Club there was a stretch limo in front of us. We were all joking around saying that it was probably Steve and crew. Sure enough, he emerged seconds later!
The reception itself was loads of fun...at least for those of us used to being around so many Meldahls in one setting. For others it may have induced a post traumatic stress episode. We all learned that if Mark (yet another brother) is allowed to drink top shelf whiskey all night long, that one does not want to get stuck in the corner with him later in the evening. Poor Kyler summed it up well after Lou dragged Mark home, "That was the LONGEST story ever!" Oh yeah, a Meldahl with a long story? Shocking! It was a truly glorious evening - a great way to celebrate the start of Steve and Claudia's life together!

The photos are beautiful. It looks like the wedding was a wonderful event. I’m having a fun time with family right now as we are organizing my sister’s wedding. We went shopping for dresses today and also made reservations at the party venue of our choice. There’s still a few months for the wedding but we are very eager for the event.
