Margo returns to Magnolia Lane 
      

 

Margo and her best friend Misty were out shopping for some things for the wedding. Misty said, I can hardly believe you are going to be  married in three months. I know me either, said Margo, and I still have a lot to do before then ,anyway my dress will be in next week. it is so beautiful. The seamstress Molly emailed me some pics of it; I’ll show  them to you later. Molly says I’ll look just like I walked off the set of  gone with the wind. Misty said, you know you were lucky to her on such a short notice. I’ve heard she usually requires at least a year’s notice.  I know said Margo, she is so good at her job I was lucky to get her at all. 

Hey here is that cake place I heard about. Let’s go in and take a look . I wonder if they have the topper I want. Grandma is making my cake. it is going to look just like grandma's flower garden at magnolia lane.  And the topper will be a white gazebo, with magnolias all down the sides of it. And a walkway made out of magnolia petals. The bride and groom  will be dressed just like Scarlet O’Hara and Rhet Butler. That sounds so great said Misty and into the shop they went.

They looked around for a little while, then a sales girl walked up and said, hi my name is Sally. Can I help you find something? Oh hello said Margo, I am getting married and I am looking for a cake topper. it needs to be a white gazebo with magnolia flowers on it. And the bride and groom need to be dressed like the couple from gone with the wind. Sally said, I think we made one like that before, let me go get our catalog, I’ll show you the one I am thinking of. Great said Margo, Sally left, and in a few minutes she came back with the catalog and showed it to Margo and Misty. Oh my goodness said Margo, it looks just like I pictured it’ll take it, how long will it take to order it. Sally said, I can have it ready in two weeks is that ok? That will be great said Margo, and I would like to go ahead and pay for it now. That will be fine said Sally. And I will call you when it comes in. ok said Margo and she and Misty left the shop. Once they were outside Misty said, how about stopping for lunch? Sounds great said Margo, I’m starving. so they headed for the diner down the road, and they both had a salad and coffee.
