This and That and the Other Thing

How can you tell there was a wedding here earlier this week? Just a few tell-tale signs:

Flowers everywhere (I could get used to that!)
Leftover paper straws from the Italian ices (searched the internet for hours for those)
Micah's discarded bow tie
Still-growing stacks of wedding gifts and cards
The empty fondant carcass of Heidi's wedding cake--no one likes fondant, but everyone likes cake! (see the cute cupcake papers?)
We're headed to the open house in Placerville, CA, in the morning. Then that should be the end of the wedding festivities.
And then maybe my blog will head back to normal, because my life really needs to get back there! Pronto!

    Oh...the flowers! I could get used to that too-there's nothing quite like fresh flowers to make a space smell heavenly and look gorgeous. I really like the ones below the mirror and family photo, love all those small arrangements. Hope you have a fabulous trip

    I would bet Placerville is really beautiful right now. The weather was gorgeous today. Have fun!

    PS. The flowers look great. I could almost smell them, just looking at the pics!

    I love your white fireplace mantel - beautiful with the flowers! Have a wonderful time - it will all be over soon, and life will find it's rhythm again. And where DID you get those cupcake papers?
