Even better in reality ....thank you Nina!

Before we went away I told you about my surprise at actually winning something in a give-away.  I never win anything!  But this time I did, and it was this beautiful bridal veil and bouquet from Nina in Finland.

I asked my nephew Mark to keep a special eye open for it, and each time I checked with him I asked whether it had arrived.  The answer was always 'no'.  So as soon as I came home I went through all the mail he had collected and left in the plastic tub that I'd left for the purpose: no, it wasn't there.  I was surprised and somewhat concerned.


But finally it has arrived!!! And it is even prettier in reality than in the photos.  Thank you Nina, a hundred times over.  It will be lovely in my Bridal Shoppe.  


And why did it take so long? The zero in the address had been read as a 6, so it went to the wrong address at first.  But finally it came to the right place and I am very relieved and happy.
