Having your daughter getting married creates all sorts of unforseen tasks. On the surface it would all seem fairly simple. Pick a church, host a reception and buy something appropriate to wear.
Not hardly.
Knowing our eldest daughter, I knew that many things would be "assigned" elsewhere and that would entail covering many details. Even knowing that, in hindsight I was CLUELESS.
#2 daughter, the OH and I have spent the last 3 weekends making jars of jams as favors for the guests. Certainly not our idea but some how we did it. This is just one of the many things being handed off to us.
Do I sound a bit stressed? Between the new job and the impending nuptials we are non stop. We have little time for riding, reading, travel or even quiet contemplation. Constantly getting new things that HAVE to be done is not helping.
I love it

It may have been a pain, but the jam looks great! I like that better than a lot of gifts I've received at weddings, at least I'd eat the jam :)
Aw chucks, I wanna go! I think guests don't often realize teh amount of preparation that goes into weddings. How fun, though. This is the stuff memories are made from. Enjoy.
Jam? Thats interesting... lol Very different! Congrats to her & you!
