I have to
apologise for yesterday's post. I was very, very tired and my brain
couldn't think clearly. I don't think I gave a worthy description of
the wedding so I will today.
We had pastries and custard for breakfast. The custard
was baked the night before, a northern tradition. The three host sisters agreed this was a breakfast fit for Christmas morning. We spent the
day out on the lake, Jbird went water-skiing behind a jetski. And he
rode the jetski. The boys played frisbee football. I think it might have been Jbird's perfect kind of day. The ceremony itself
was very very simple - nine minutes long, conducted in the living
room. There was a little wee flower girl with chubby chubby legs who sat very quietly when she needed to and stole the show afterwards with her cuteness. I
was completely under dressed. The bride didn't know she had a bouquet
so she didn't hold it but it was pretty in the photos. They opened a
few presents. We toasted with champagne. We had wedding
cake(s), huge American-sized (beef) steaks on the grill, and smores around a campfire. The
other cake (the one I didn't make) was a creamy mocha chocolate creation and dedicated to both the wedding couple and a sister who was having a birthday. It was a great way to have a wedding. If only the groom's entire family could have been there, it would have been perfect.
