The Original Idea!
Here is this weeks Saturday Centus. As usual the prompt is in blue & I’ve added 100 words to it to make a silly seasonal something! Pop over to Jenny Matlock’s place for some more pieces!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The wedding date was 19th December. What a time to choose! Possibility of snow & bad weather, coughs & colds. Still it was their decision. What could we do or say. We just had to go along with it!
Travelling down was difficult – snow everywhere. It took us double the time & we were freezing by the time we got there.
Sitting the church we could see the groom smiling & overheard him say:
‘Yes, it was my idea. Very original’.
The music sounded & in walked the bridal party. Suddenly, we saw his original idea!
“What was he thinking? OMG! Elves are soooo 2009…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Footnote: My son is getting married on 19th December 2010 so by the time you read this I will know whether there were Elves!!
What a clever use of a very difficult prompt.
I hope there weren’t any elves at the wedding…
I bet it was wonderful, though.
I hope you are having a lovely relaxing day recovering from a glorious and joyful Christmas and a momentous family event!
Thank you for linking.
I hope the real wedding went well!
Clever take on the prompt!
Best wishes,
