Broken Ankle Wedding! Did we manage?


Going to a wedding this weekend.  Our grandson Colin is getting married to very nice young lady.  Getting married in March is risky, but getting married in January is even riskier.

Our daughter Mary came home many years ago and said, Jeff and I would like to get married in January.  I believe I shrieked, January, we could have a blizzard. You never know in Indiana.

Two days before the wedding, my husband went to make the final payment on the hall for the reception with another daughter and her husband.  The parking lot at the hall was very icy and he fell.  He came home with a very swollen ankle and could not stand on it.  To make a long story short, we went to the emergency room the next morning and he insisted on a walking cast for his broken ankle.

The day of the wedding was beautiful.  The bride was walked down the isle by her father in his walking cast.  He even danced with her at the reception.

The moral of the story plan all your wedding either in the good old hot summer or the beauty of fall.
