I am back and I cannot wait until I share everything with you!!! So much to tell, but I will have to post one thing at the time. I will start with our wedding day if you don’t mind (there will be more details to follow).

So if you have not guessed it already, our wedding was marigold themed (plus other random but well matched colours). I am not too sure how this came round and at what stage I started loving marigolds, but it worked out so well. In fact Joni’s dad have thought that I am having marigold fever at some point :-D.

Oh, and I did not mentioned that Joni has an identical twin Tim!

Kalm Kitchen had a cool idea! They have made us pick 8 guests to be the carvers at our tables.

Joni have been so excited about the idea that he wrote a poem for our carvers. This one is for Joni’s Dad…
