Spring Wedding in February





Just to make you all jealous, here are some photos of my cousin's wedding held two weeks ago in San Diego. We had perfect weather-- in the high 60's. I got to be a bridesmaid! It was my second (and probably last) time-- I'm only 30, but almost all my friends are married. Since it was a cousin on my mother's side of the family, I had the added fun of helping to make all the bouquets and boutinierres (sp?). We have a wonderful tradition among the female aunts and cousins in our family of doing the flowers ourselves. Since the mother of the bride (my mother's sister) is a floral mastermind, and I have about 10 cousins helping every time, the flowers always come out gorgeous! What each bride ends up with is flowers just to her taste and waaaay below cost. A fabulous tradition, and one I benefited from greatly myself!

Hi Sarah,
Thank you for your compliments on my woolpets blog. You have some lovely things on your site as well. I love the needle felted 'Sleeping Beauty' and the robin and egg. If you enjoy doll making, check out 'De Witte Engel' kits. (Unless you already know about these folks). I love their kits. Thanks again for getting in touch. Laurie
