On my birthday, my mom tells me this time 27 years ago.... (Although the number of years keeps changing every year). It's a game we play now. This time five years ago, I was getting dressed and doing my hair. Todd was canning. Yes, canning!! I think they canned 68 cans of peaches. I have to double check my facts.
I wasn't sure of the time, so I told my mom we should be there early. Then my mom made sure we got there before that. The temple patrons started wondering if Todd would show up. He did, right on time. And we were married.
He remembers taking an afternoon nap on a couch in the gym (while we took care of a few last minute touches before the reception). We turned off the lights and locked the church up with Todd in there. He slept till we got back.
It was a nice reception. We still talk about our wedding bear cakes. We still love it!! Momma Nef says she hasn't seen anything like it yet.
The day would not be complete if I didn't mention the cottage cheese. We got home and had nothing in our new apartment except cottage cheese. So we ate cottage cheese by candle light. Cottage cheese hasn't been the same since. We still laugh about that one every now and then when we have cottage cheese.
