I had an event full weekend. First thing is that my wife's busniess Sweet Inovations by R had two wedding cakes. On for the Gardner Rishell wedding at the Mingoville Country Club, which I have lived in this area for 20+ years and have never heard of the place. And the other cake was for her brothers wedding in Pittsburgh. So Friday we were up unitl 1:30 to 2:00 finishing up the cakes. Saturday morning we had to be at the Mingoville Country Club at 8:00am because her brothers wedding started at noon. The first cake delivery went well so we ended up leaving for Pittsburgh around 8:30. We arrived in at the church in Pittsburgh at 11:00. So i made good time. One thing i would like to point out about Route 22 is that since most of the construction is done on that road between Holidaysburg and Murrysville It does not take near as long as it used to. I know that that road has had contruction going on for as long as i can remember.
This section is for the parents out there, How do you get your children ages 2 Thatcher and 3 Hayden to sit quietly for 30 to 45 minutes through a wedding Our 3 year old actually didn't do that bad but it took some chewy candy and my cell phone where he played Paint, Need for Speed or "cars" as he called it and many rounds of Angry Birds. That work well for him, but my two year old was not so easy. First thing i made sure of is that we had an end seat on the outside ailse just in case i need to get him out of there. 
We tried the same tactic on Thatcher as we did Hayden, but i did not work as well. It worked for the first 15 to 20 minutes but after that i had to use my planned escape to the outside. Once we were outside Thatcher was in a better mood. After the wedding we set out for the reception. The receptiion ended up being at the house of a friend of the brides. This house was beautiful. I failed

I failed
to get some pictures of the front but i did get some pictures of the back and the garden. The boys had a great time just running the paths of the garden for 3/4 of the time we were there. At the reception there was a "candy" bar which is bascally a table with a bunch of different kinds of candy on it. Overall the reception was good the cake was Amazing as was the location. We got home around 7:00pm.
