Wedding Feast

I.

Am.

Tired.

A couple from church are getting married tomorrow.

There was a minor (hah!) snafu in the wedding preparations & a few other ladies & I found ourselves in charge of the food.

So Wednesday we hit the stores with the bride-to-be.

It was my 3rd visit to a Costco.

I have to say, that is a nifty store.

I’m thinking we need a membership ;)

We had a $600 hundred dollar budget & we came in $100 under :)

Today was the big prep day.

We started at 11am & we chopped & sliced & minced & (melon) balled until almost 5pm :P

We have pasta salad, fruit salad, strawberry shortcake—complete with freshly whipped cream—salami sandwiches, ham & cheese sandwiches & turkey sandwiches & I am sure I am forgetting something.

But it is done!

And it should feed all 120 of the expected guests.

And, more importantly, make the bride happy :)

It was long & tiring but fun.

We laughed & we shared & I learned bunches about my new friends.

It was awesome.

And thru it all, I just have to say, that being “the pastor’s wife’ is just the weirdest ;)

But with ladies like these to fellowship with I think I’ll adjust :)

So tomorrow is the big day.

And I better see people with full plates…

:)

Blessings.
