The Paper Anniversary- The First
Happy First Anniversary Laura and James. It was a happy wedding. There’s a list of traditional and modern wedding anniversary gifts for each year here. I knew that the first anniversary was paper.
Laura took this photo of the paper items I sent to them to mark the occasion. James said he came home from work to find some large boxes on their front porch and had no idea what was in them. I know I had fun thinking about sending the paper products and figured it would be a gift that would get used. Actually, used up! Shipping was free!
James had the idea to call me on SKYPE and here they are at home talking to me.
Last week at breakfast in Columbus at First Watch
and the weekend they came to help me with the House Concert in Pittsburgh






Awww.. nothing like that first anniversary! What a beautiful and sweet couple! Your gift was perfect!!

I love gifts that are creative *and* functional. Every time they wipe their hands, they will think of you. (But hopefully the same doesn’t hold true when they use the Scott product.)
