One Day More...

The day before the wedding was a bit drizzly and overcast--which turned into full-fledged rain during the bridal luncheon! It failed to spoil our fun though, and Aunts Linda and Jan threw such a fabulous girls' luncheon out at Tohono Chul Park's Tea Room. All the ladies from out of town got together and we had a wonderful time on the Tiffany blue decorated patio (covered, thankfully) chatting, opening gifts, catching up, and munching. Amanda's aunts worked so hard to make it lovely, and it truly was! Plus, there were thoughtful gifts like handmade holiday napkins, handwritten favorite recipes, a beautiful painting, the perfect dress for the rehearsal dinner, and even a lovely bracelet celebrating the theme. Katie Craig and Ali both drove down early that morning from Phoenix, Corinne averted baby-sitter disaster, Emily arrived directly from Utah, and Amanda Stremel and Aunt Joyce came straight from the airport. Everyone was so kind!!
