Abby and I have been watching the Martha Stewart video on weddings (no, we're not planning a wedding for many years yet- we don't condone children marrying at 14 years of age...). We have only made it through a fraction of the video material, but it was fun to see the professional florists make beautiful arrangements for tables and bouquets.

Abby asked to try on my wedding dress (above) and this time when she put it on *it fit her*. She loves to hear how her Daddy sat with me on Sunday afternoons on the back porch and helped me bead all that lace. He didn't see the dress until the wedding day, but he sure did know all about the beads and sequins!


Of course since this is Martha Stewart, only the best and finest is featured. But I have been amazed at how much one could do themselves, based on watching the professionals show their skills. It encourages me that someday we might be able to give a nice wedding on a small budget.


Outside today the weather has been cold, windy, snowy and foggy (with some thunder thrown in for good measure). A big snow storm is supposedly going to be moving in tonight. I'm so glad because we really need the moisture.

And we have a very long video to watch if we get snowed in!
