Surprise . . . after so many years

What a surprise! I spent hours Saturday rearranging and organizing "the back room" which has been the place to stash things until "later". I found a small box that was labeled "long term storage" and wondered what it was.

It is the cake topper from our wedding reception! I didn't even know we had it. I had let mom make the arrangements for our reception in Olympia because I was in school in Provo. It is white ribbons and silk flowers with little yellow, orange and turquoise accents. The timing was incredible - our anniversary is one week from today on September 7.

That's cool. I guess there is a silver lining to having so much stuff close at hand :)

That's awesome Mom. I'll let you store my cake topper (unless it was already destroyed when things were moved around in the china hutch, I don't remember) for many years to come so I can have the same wonderful surprise.
