This evening Jenny, Lydia, and Morgan went to see the wedding preparations of Lydia's old babysitter and family friend Laura. Laura is almost twenty-one and has taught the lower grades at the local 2-room school for about the past 3 years. She is the second oldest of 10 children. Since Laura is Amish, we did not take pictures of her. She will wear a black dress with a white cape for her wedding tomorrow.
This is the main table for the meal they will have after the wedding service. She will be married at 9 am, her family will have a homecooked meal for 500+ at 12 pm, and the family will host the local teenagers for the evening. They had about 30 women at their house this morning preparing 64 pies plus lots of other food for the main meal. They added walls and a kitchen in their barn to host the event. We enjoyed seeing all the preparations and hearing the plans for tomorrow. Lydia loved playing with her old friends from when she used to play at their house.
