Cranes, cake and awesome people.

July 24th 2010


"In Japan, it is commonly said that folding 1000 paper origami cranes makes a person's wish come true. This makes them popular gifts for special friends and family."


Thanks to special friends and family for one thousand cranes, big (see above) and small. Amazing! And keeping the secret - I had no idea! 










































Alice, die Torten-Zauberin! DANKE!



















It was a party to remember.

Almost forgot the best part:

So, I'm wondering why you have each other's shoe in your hands and it looks like you;re just holding it above your heads... what does that mean? I'm curious.

Oh, it's a game they like to play here at receptions: Bride and groom trade one shoe so they each have one of their own and one of the other's. Then they are asked questions, such as: who cooks better? who controls the remote? ect. And the shoe represents the each person's answer to the question. Sometimes there are prizes for a certain amount of same answers, but mostly it's a good laugh and you kind of get to know the couple and see how good they know each other.
