Okay - So She Cried!

My last post showed the box I made for my niece that held my parents wedding bands that became mine when they passed away.  I gave them to Aimee the day before her wedding at lunch for her "something borrowed" and she burst into tears!  So did I!
She wore them on a chain around her neck with her wedding dress and told me how they were just perfect.  I'm so glad a part of my parents could be with Aimee on her special day!
 
Here's Aimee and Rick after they said their vows and were officially married:
Aren't they ADORABLE?!!!
 
I'll be back to post something in a couple of days.

What a lovely and thoughtful gesture for your niece and nephew to have your parents rings as 'Something Borrowed'. You have to be the favorite aunt :)
