Even though winter weddings can be very risky, they sure are pretty! With the weather in the 50’s today, I mean how much better can you get for a December wedding? One of my sisters had gotten married many years ago in December and for sure it wasn’t like the weather that we had this weekend. Here wedding had snow and more snow the week before and the grooms whole side wasn’t able to make the wedding. So 50 degree weather – Score!
So first things first, I needed to get a card ready and once that was done we packed an overnight bag and we were off! 
I must say that I’ve never been to a wedding venue at a stable before. It was awesome! This is what I found out about it: Functioning as a Stable beginning in 1838 using stone taken from a nearby quarry, the Palmer Stable originally was used as a mill, but nearby residents complained about the noise it created and the building was converted to a livery stable. Keeping up with the times, the stable was converted in 1917 to house rental automobiles. Then it had a small gas station operating on the property directly in front of the Stable for 40 years before closing down the service station in 1999. There is a new owner and has taken over the Historic Palmer House Stable since 2007. As you walked up the sidewalk to the building, we noticed the old stone foundation and at that point I couldn’t wait to get inside. The wedding was Christmas themed and they even had a Christmas tree where you placed your wedding gift to the couple underneath it . Of course the food was great and with the bride and groom were glowing. After a night of dancing and hanging out with friends, we headed to the hotel for the night. We were with my brother and sister in law and had a really fun weekend!
And guess what I did Sunday when we got home? Well after the little nap, I made some more soap 🙂 First I cut my soap that I made Friday night -Squeaky Windmill. I tried to make it look like clouds in the sky. 
I’ve still have some work to do, but it’s getting better. So today I made some Hanging with Ed in the Spring soap that actually went pretty good. Hanging with Ed is soap on a rope and in the past I have not had good luck when filling the molds. But this time it I didn’t even swear. OK, I didn’t swear too much. Then to finish the night off, I’m on hold for Customer service for an on line company. I have been tempted to hang up a couple of times, but after I’ve got around 2 hours into this commitment – we’ll see who caves first!
