I donāt even know where to start!!
I am not good with words, Robyn always had that gift.
Well here we go. R&R Designs has been in business over 7 years, and some of the things we have done, Weddings, Wedding reception, baby showers, birthdays, office parties, bridal showers, Christmas parties, business meetings, anniversaryās, just about anything you wanted to celebrate we would decorate. We went from Bowling Green Ky to Rensselaer IN to Story IN and everywhere in between.
We loved doing what we did and most of all we enjoyed each other. The laughter would take the place of hard work and how tired we would be. There are so many stories that I could tell that would make you laugh. No matter what happen we always made it work, from blowing fuses in one side of a building one hour before the reception to almost breaking your ankle, cutting your toe off, getting the wrong flowers, wrong color runners, the cake falling in the floor after the cake lady left, so cold out side that our things froze to the truck, standing in an open field with a shepherd hook w/ tornado sirens going off and lightning, a ladder falling out of the truck going down a 4 lane highway 70 mile and hour, flowers for the wedding party not being delivered, crying with the bride, crying with the groom, half the overhead lights go out right in the middle of the toast, wrong cake delivered, not getting home until 2 or 3 am., and I could just go on and on. And though all this Robyn would say āit is ok we can make it work or it isnāt that bad, or no one will noticeā and I would look at her like are you out of your mind. I am laughing right now!! But it always just worked, we would say will that was R&Rād, everything just went together.
We were like a ying and yang. What I didnāt remember she did, what she could not fix I would. We always stayed until the event was over so we could help with anything. If I could not find Robyn, I would know to find the kids because that is where she would be. She wanted to make sure everyone was having fun and had everything they needed.
Our last decorating event, we did was this past Christmas at the Pioneer Village in Rockport Indiana and Larkin Baptist Church. We had so much fun and laugh so hard. I will not forget how bright her smile was and happy she was. She was tired but would never let on like she was.
All of this is my memories of our time together as R&R Designs.
Robyn, my business partner, best friend, ear when I needed it, a kick in the butt when I needed it and my sister friend. I will miss you and it hurts to the core, but I know that you are with Grandma Wood and we will be together again. So, until than my friend, this is not good bye this is until I see you again and like you always said
Iš you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
