Speechless

We have officially received our first (non-wedding shower) wedding gift. Our dear friends Kathy and Micky came over for dinner this weekend. Micky will be marrying David and I, and he wanted to discuss the certain things we would like him to include (and NOT include) in our ceremony. They took the evening to give us their wedding gift. To say the least - it left me speechless.



Kathy knit this herself - Micky helped by holding LOTS of yarn. The detail is incredible.



I still don't know what we've done to deserve two such incredible people in our lives, but we are beyond grateful!


Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend - I have a few exciting bits of news to share next week!
