DAD & JOAN'S WEDDING DEC. 12, 2008

Friday, December 12th was Dad & Joan's wedding day. In spite of a destructive ice storm the previous day which caused a power outage for a week, Joan made it over from NY by noon on the wedding day as well as her daughter's family from LA arriving finally in Boston that morning. Thanks to generators, the wedding went off as scheduled and was very lovely. Charlotte Smith made the cake and sent it over with Nancy Knaggs, and Sharon & Lucille put it together and added the final touches. We breathed a sigh of relief when it was done, as neither of us had ever done any cake decorating before! It was a masterpiece, thanks to Charlotte! After the wedding, we all went to Longhorn Steakhouse for a lovely dinner. We had planned to go across the street from the farm to The Mile Away, but they didn't have power and weren't open.
