Wedding preparations

On February 19th, Friday we started our day.
First we decorated the reception site, which was at the Southern Dunes Country/Golf Club. We were to meet Candace and Tabetha there at 2:30pm. Well at 2:45 the girls show up. I know she will make it on time tomorrow, I'll be with her. I had to make a schedule out and we had things to do. It was so beautiful on the outside. We had luminars lining the staircase. The tables were all decked out in Bright Pink and Navy Blue napkins, we sat candy kisses in front of each napkin, tall Vases with the flower of the day and a floating candle made an elegant setting. Special thanks goes to Grandma Sandy for all the flower arrangements that were used in the Ceremony and reception. Grandma out did herself this time. Nothing but great compliments about everything.
Then it was off to the Church to decorate and rehersal. We sat at the church for almost an hour and half cause we got done early at the other place. We were all really getting tired and cranky. But once we were inside everything went smoothly.
Then we were off the Golden Coral and Thank you goes out to Dan Pea for the rehersal dinner, it was lovely and everyone had a good time. Tabetha and Daniel passed out gifts after dinner. All the boys got dog tags to wear, flower girls got little jewlery boxes, the big girls got bath lotions, by the name of Sweat PEA, we also got a braclet to wear in the wedding if we chose to. I DID. Grandma Sandy received a what I would call a Magic Stick fragrancer, (which I really want one) and special magnet which explains why grandma's are special and a wind chime in the color of the flowers, just a little reminder not to plant that color if you are tired of looking at it. Although it is a beautiful color.
After the day is finally finished we can now go home or on our ways. It had been a very tiring day. I spent the night with Tabetha. Candace and Ashlynn also spent the night. It was a rough night let me tell you. Ashlynn was not feeling good and wining for daddy in her sleep about every 30 mins or so. We slept on the couch and then on the floor. Tabetha took Max with her to bed around 11:00pm. I could hear Max barking and her telling him to shutup and go to sleep. He finally did. I started trying to find channel 13 on the television and couldn't do it. It took me 2 hours to figure the remote out. (of course if was dark and I can't read small print). I was getting frustrated.
