Matt and Jen arrived at our place late this afternoon with a truck full of most of Jen's earthly goods. They had unloaded a table and chairs at Jocelyn and Donovan Weber's place, and then Jen and Evelyn headed for the seamstress for a fitting of the wedding dress. "Just rest," Evelyn told Matt. But he and I decided to try to get the stuff Jen was leaving here into the house before they got back.
We did it! A bed frame with box springs and mattress, a futon, an antique dresser, two hassocks, and two big bookshelves. Evelyn fixed a wonderful supper of roast beef, carrots, twice-baked potatoes, and tossed salad. After supper Jen showed us a few more boxes full of props for the reception to bring in. One bedroom of the house is just about full of stuff for the reception--but not for long!
I told the people in the office that I was going to stay and eat breakfast with Matt and Jen tomorrow and might be late to work. But they want to be at the courthouse by 8:00 to get the marriage license. I may get to work sooner than usual!
