Annie & Jake - 6.2.2007

We were very excited when we received the invitation for Annie & Jake's wedding and couldn't wait to attend. When June 2, finally came around all the Cleveland sports fans who were in attendance realized the wedding would coincide with Lebron James and the Cavaliers Game 6 vs. the hated Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals! Luckily during the ceremony the priest put in a good word with the big Guy upstairs.

After the wedding ceremony was over we had a few hours to kill between the ceremony and reception. We decided to round up the troops: Dave, Eek, Anton, Meghan, Me, Maureen, Hallie, Jasmine Rowan!, Mia, and many more from the RH connection met up at Dave & Buster's in Westlake. We tore up the gaming floor and Eek showed his skills at skee ball, and the dreaded Light-stopping game (For lack of a better term, the Light-Stopping game is a game of skill in which christmas light bulbs are lined in a circular pattern around a globe...There are several stations with buttons to hit when the light is directly in your home section. If you happen to hit your stopper button at the precise moment you will win a jackpot of something like 300 tickets which can be used for expensive prizes such as: plastic combs, purple furry ties as modeled by meghan, and Huge kickballs.) Dave was ridiculed into oblivion and is scarred for life for having yet to overcome this game of skill. Eek has bragging rights.

After the gaming we drove back to the reception and sat down for a nice meal. After mingling with guests and friends we hadn't seen in a while Dave and I took some time out to check the Cavs game score periodically. Eventually, once the fourth quarter came around we sat in the parking lot for about 45 min. to listen intently to Joe Tait's call as the Cavs pulled away for their first ever NBA Finals Appearance!! All Hail the King. It was a great night both on and off the court.
