Shawn and Winnie chose to plant a tree to commemorate their wedding which was held at our friends three acre property in the country. A tree seemed to be fitting, Their cake was made of rice krispies held together by peanut butter and corn syrup (an old family recipe) and they cut it using the knife Jack and I used at our wedding almost 32 years ago.
Sorry the pictures aren't the best!
And now you can relax.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that it all went off well.
Well they are the BEST in my book! Planting a tree is so cool~~a breathing marker of their union, and I am ALL FOR the rice krispie cake! WHOOO--HOOOO!!!!
