FATHER OF THE BRIDE'S CONTRIBUTION

What every Mother of the Bride wants to see.... her beautiful daughter with a big cigar butt hanging out of her mouth... Have I told you about my husband's #1 vice?....he is a cigar aficionado! He hoards them in his 3 humidors, and then some other places as his humidors are not big enough. You think I'm an online shopper? HA! You don't know my husband. He loves his cigars, smokes 3+ on his 3 day weekends while golfing or sitting at the pond.

These just came today. He ordered them for daughters wedding...actually they will be given out at the rehearsal dinner. At Jayne Marie on Cross Lake, we have the 2nd story function room, complete with it's own bar and beautiful outdoor deck. Perfect for cigar smoking. I don't dare take off the plastic wrap least I disturb the karma...hhmmm...humidity of these babies. Husband likes good, really good cigars and is constantly trying new ones. He has been working very hard on wedding planning...this is what he has contributed....

(Other then all the money to pay for everything, got to give him that credit...he says he doesn't want to know what it all costs, he just wants to show up, play golf, have a blast and a good cigar and a few martinis) Don Tomas Corojo 660 is a new robust, gorda-sized smoke wrapped in a coarse, naturally fermented Maduro Corojo-seed wrapper is a unique blend of Nicaraguan and Honduran long-leaf fillers that are full of flavor.

Size: 6 x 60

Oh yea, he just placed another online order last night.

Meeting Hubby

I got tagged by One Fabulous Mom to tell the story of Meeting Hubby. It's ancient history but I'll do my best.
In the Spring of 1974, I was approximately a Junior Library Science major, formerly an art major in college. I took a part time Library job at night at a Maritime Academy. It was all male...HA!!! That was fun. One night I looked up and saw my future husband walking towards me and I absolutely fell in love, with his looks of course, since I had not even met him. The semester came to an end, he had visited me a few times and I knew what a nice, sincere person he was. Then summer came and he had to leave for his Senior year cruise. I was on the dock along with all the other parents, girlfriends, and family members to wish them Bonn Voyage. He came over to me and shook my hand goodbye. He totally sealed the deal with that handshake. It was the longest 2 months of my life....all I could do was think about him. When he came back from the cruise, we went out and became inseparable. He graduated in 1975, took a job that he didn't like, finally got a great engineering job so that he felt he could support both of us. I was still in school. We married in April 1977.....31 years ago. This is what he surprised me with last year in honor of our 30 years married...
