Mommy & Daddy went to a Vietnamese wedding the night before Father's Day. Everything was in Vietnamese - with a few exceprts of English - but they learned a lot about the weddings in other cultures.
Their friends served an 8 course meal, the bride wore 4 outfits, and the gifts are presented to the bride and groom by every table while they wear outfit #3. Traditionally, the gifts are money - and the wedding party collects them as each table toasts the happy couple. It was fun to spend time with some of Mommy's co-workers - and learn so much about weddings :-)
Of course, Mommy and Daddy celebrated their anniversary one day early at the wedding!
Happy 12th Anniversary, Mom & Dad!
Daddy told Mommy not to buy any anniversary or Father's Day presents - and she listened. Daddy didn't! We bought Mommy 12 flowers - 4 purple flowers from Neela, 4 pink flowers from Kylie and 4 red flowers from Brooke.... and some pepper-infused chocolate, too!
Father's Day, we went shopping for Daddy's breakfast! We bought him a large variety of donuts and coffee. We were headed for fishing and a picnic when the fire department got called to a large apartment fire... Instead, we went and bought Daddy his fishing license - and took the picnic to the fire station to wait for him. He came back while we were eating - so we spent a little time with him before going to the park :-)
It turned into a great day for everyone!
