Wedding Day

 

Today is the day, at 3:00 I gain a daughter. Also for the first time in 36 years, as spare room. Kind of weird to think about. Except for the boys I still have at home have commandeered it for a man room or so they think. I am still hoping for a guest room.

Yesterday was my part of the wedding the rehearsal dinner. I have to say that with Megan and Ben's and Ron's help it turned out to be the best meal I have ever cooked in my life. So I think I redeemed myself after my Thanksgiving fiasco.

So here we are today. It is raining. Even as I write, water in going underneath the tent from the rain. Not a single thing I can do about it either. I thought you might be interested to see how my house looks today.

First we will start with my office.

 

 Sorry that this is so dark, but the rain and clouds makes it this way. This is camera equipment. Tons of equipment sitting here in the office.

Then I thought this lens deserved its own picture.

Isn't that awesome?

Now we will go into my entry way.

 

That is boxes of cups for the tables. These really pretty etched coffee cups. I will take a picture and show you after this is over.

We are traveling into the dining room, and my dining room table.

So much stuff. You know, I wonder why I obsess about having a clean house. There is so much stuff everywhere, you couldn't tell if it is clean or not. 

Now lets go outside and look at the front yard. 

The big generator that is to run the lights, the music the projector and who knows what else. then the things with the giant hoses is the heaters. It is so cold you wouldn't be able to stay out there without these heaters. 

The outside of the tent is up next. 

 

Those cement blocks are there to hold down the tent in case of wind. There are 32 of them that weight 500 pounds each. I felt so sorry for them men who had to haul them in over the wet lawn. 

The quiet before the storm. The first part of the wedding will be like a church service. Ron and I and the brides parents will be doing communion and praying with the bride and groom after the vows. Then after this is over, everyone will have to leave while the tables are set up and decorated. 

There is still so much to be done before I sleep. I just thought I would share with you before we kick into day two. I am always numb at this part. Well should end this blog, my phone is starting to ding. Work is waiting. 

Have a lovely day,

~Kim~
