Mother Daughter Trip to Omaha



My step mom's son, Tyler (my step brother) got married this past weekend in Omaha, NE.  I took advantage of this opportunity to spend some time with my dad and step mom & make a Mother-Daughter weekend getaway!

Dayne and I headed for NE on Friday morning about 8:00.  We had an appointment for a pedicure at 1:00 so we didn't want to be late and miss out on that pampering event!  The drive didn't take as long as I thought it would take, so we got there in time to enjoy a quick lunch at Subway with Dad & Susan.  Then the girls headed to the nail salon!  (This was Susan's first ever manicure and pedicure!)

After the  mani-pedi, we headed to the hotel to get ready for the rehersal and rehersal dinner.  While the wedding party headed to the church, Dayne and I headed to the rehersal dinner location and set up for the Mexican feast for all!

Saturday, the day of the wedding, was a whirlwind of events!  We were all going non-stop from the moment we woke up!  Susan pampered herself with having her hair professionally styled, then on to Younkers for her make up to be done at the Clinique counter ... then to the church for pictures.  While Dad and Susan were at the church for the photos, Dayne and I headed back to the hotel to get ready.  The wedding was at 2:00 and we were pushing the time limit, for sure!  We only had about 10 minutes to get dressed and do our hair & make up!  Gahhh!

We made it to the church on time and everything went off without a hitch! It was a beautiful ceremony, with several moments of tears and many more moments of joy!

After the ceremony we all headed over to the reception hall for dinner and dancin'!  It was a fun night!

Susan, Dayne and Dad - dancin' the night away!
The next morning Dayne and I went to Village Inn for breakfast (we don't have them close by, so we had to take advantage of one of our favorite breakfasts!).  After breakfast, we headed over to Keri, the new bride, aunt & uncle's house where they opened wedding gifts and cards.  After staying for a short while, Dayne and I headed back home and got home about 2:30.  It was a fun weekend!  I really cherished the mother-daugher time, and time with my dad and step mom!
