Eight years ago today I married the one I love! We both just think, "Wow, where has the time gone?" So many wonderful blessings and changes have occurred in our lives. Amongst all the changes the memory of our wedding day always stands out so clear in my mind. I remember waking up the day of our wedding. I got our of bed, had breakfast, got dressed and went down to get in my car to drive to the church. There was a beautiful paper white narcissus blooming in my garden. I picked it and attached it to this letter that I had written to Rich. I placed the letter and flower in the men's dressing room, so that when they arrived, Rich would see it. I meant it with all my heart and I still feel the same way!
Rich saved the letter and I have it in our wedding memory book. Last night we had a little toast with sparkling cranberry juice and we had a red velvet cake for dessert. Mary thought it was great fun.
Rich's folks took care of Mary while we went out to lunch today. She has so much fun with Grandpa and Grandma.
Rich and I went to our favorite fish restaurant. We had the Mixed Grill.
Crab cake, salmon and prawns, yummm!
After dinner we walked over to the Harry and David store. This is the beautiful tree they have out front. We bought some huge white mushrooms, garlic cesar salad dressing and salt water taffy. It was very crowded with all the people shopping for holiday goodies. We had such a wonderful day!
Christmas Blessings,
Elena
