Red and yellow tulips - a touch of Spring!



The Wedding came and went! It was a special day! The weather also held; eventhough, dark clouds were looming, and an ever stirring winter wind.

The bride and the groom and their wedding party looked awesome! All wonderfully attired, and the flowers were exquisite! The minister was outstanding; and shared invaluable advice to us all.

The reception and dinner that followed, was well worth the several months of planning. Every tidbit of detail was covered and was first rate. The speeches were excellent; and my son, Arthur, was the "perfect" M.C. and "MoMo" would have approved!

Glad we were a part of that beautiful day for my daughter, and her love of her life.

Alan and I both support Candice and Jean-Marc, in their lives together. We are, and will be there always for them; and we wish them every tidbit of love and happiness.

Tidbit - Be appreciative of those special occasions! And also, of the happy memories that permeate from such special times.

P.S. The tables had red and yellow tulips as centerpieces. A most refreshing, bright touch! We took our centerpiece home with us; looks gorgeous on our glass table!

P.P.S. In the photo seen on the right, ( ie. of my myself, Mum, and Candice), I wore "MoMo's" dress to Candice's wedding. "MoMo' wore it to our wedding, and we feel that "MoMo", was there "in spirit" with us all. We know she would be happy for her beloved grand daughter.

P.P.S.S. Tidbit -There was a toast to "Absent Friends"; and I know our "MoMo" and "MoFa" was saying "Skal" right back to us all! "Absent Friends" is an old Norwegian custom. It is meant to be a toast to remember special loved ones that are not able to be physically present. Arthur included "Absent Friends" in his M.C. address. A very nice gesture. Thank you.
