Our family has been very busy preparing for our son Joe’s wedding in Seattle on August 9th. Susie and our daughter, Julie, have been looking for some months now for a dress that my granddaughter can wear as the official flower girl. The search started when we were in Mexico in March and continued on through the first of June. Finally Susie took matters in her own hands and produced this beauty on her sewing machine.
I have also been busy trying to get an engagement announcement in the paper since February but my procrastination tendencies have been overwhelming the effort. I don’t want one of those ‘the wedding will be tomorrow afternoon’ announcements. All us old folks knows what that means.
Incidentally, for you younger folks, that last statement is a holdover from the old days when people had nothing better to do than speculate on whether a couple ‘had’ to get married.
