Preparing For the Wedding

Back to the Beginning

Friday Morning, February 19

 The scene as we left Dawson and Hope’s driveway on Friday morning. They are neighbors to Bob and Doris – and the home where we stayed for four nights.

This photo was taken through the pickup truck window, after turning left and heading toward Bob and Doris’ home. We have the use of their car or truck during the wedding weekend.

Outside Bob & Doris’ living room window. The beauty on the trees is not snow, but hoarfrost.

 After going to Japheth and Aimee’s house to prepare the bed and guest room for Gary and Joy Butikofer, Lynne walked to grandpa and grandma’s with me. Bob and Doris’ house is in the background.

 I think throwing packing bags at each other was a stress-reliever, as the wedding is now only a day away.
