friday ronnie and marlo had a perfect day for a wedding.  i was looking forward to this wedding for many reasons.  one being that i went to grade school with ronnie so it was nice to see some old friends and his family.  we started off in the morning with marlo before meeting up at st john vianny.  marlo had some amazing christian louboutin shoes.  after driving around my new cleveland spot we headed over to landerhaven for a huge party that didn’t seem to end!  you guys rock, ronnie you were a blast to be around all day.  reminded me of junior high!  have fun in maui.
