Mrs. Hyena's Picture
Mrs. Hyena, College Station, TX Age and Occupation: 23, Marketing Specialist Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Aerospace Engineering Grad Student Engagement Date: January 8, 2010 Wedding Date: May 2011 Venue: Downtown 202 About Me: I'm a Texas girl who met my future hubby in high school, then headed up to Oklahoma for a college education (BOOMER SOONER!) before moving back to the Lone Star State to be with him. I love reading and recycling, Photoshop and reality TV, making lame jokes and then laughing at them, quoting movies, and Mr. Hyena most of all. I'm perpetually early and I like to get things accomplished. When my cat meows at me, I meow back. We're planning a laid-back, unintentionally DIY wedding with a cocktail-party vibe, and can't wait to celebrate our nuptials with our nearest and dearest!
About Mrs. Hyena

You thought we were done partying just because the wedding was over? Not on your life!

The day after the wedding, we drove to Austin for our Sunday barbecue, generously hosted by Mr. Hyena’s aunt and uncle.

It was really nice, because it gave us a chance to actually spend time with our families. We didn’t get to spend more than a few minutes talking to people at our reception, so we were thankful for this extra time. Some of Mr. Hyena’s relatives had flown in all the way from Germany for our wedding!

Mr. H’s family had Salt Lick Barbecue brought in, and family members provided so many delicious desserts! Not to mention we still had leftover wedding cake AND this adorable “congratulations” cake!

My family got the chance to get to know Mr. Hyena’s family better and spent some time hanging out.

We also got to spend more time with our bridal party. They all had to go home that afternoon, and we didn’t want to see them go!

After the party started winding down, Mr. Hyena and I headed back to College Station. We were exhausted from the weekend and were excited to get back to our home!

What game are the boys playing in those pictures? I thought I was pretty well versed in backyard BBQ games, but I don’t even have a guess for that one! (Oh wait - I’ve heard about Texas and Washers - is that some kind of official board??)

I LOVE your dress! Where did you get it? I hope wherever it is has one up here in the Chicago area!

So awesome - we play washers with a smaller board (more like a skee ball type of set-up in a bucket-like contraption) here in the Northeast. I really like that Texas board, especially the balance beam aspect of it. Looks like a great afternoon!

Aw man, how I do love Salt Lick! That is good stuff!! I wish we couldhave done some kind of day after party but since we got married on a Sunday most people had to skedaddle from town or were back at work. :(
