Chapter 20 Winter Wonderland

Liz POV
This evening has been nothing short of magical. Everything a mother could ask for in the form of happiness for her sons. The look on Alice's face when the Guests of Honor were announced was comical. To be a part of Edward's and Jasper's wedding was a dream come true, but to be able to pull something this size off right under the nose of the super controlling evil preggo Pixie was priceless. Now I'm starting to sound like a mastercard commercial.
The decor for the ball turned out to be better than anything I ever expected. Once I explained to Jorge, the Event Planner what was going on behind the scenes. He was more than happy to go the extra mile for my boys. He was able to blend both events seamlessly into one and in doing that we were able to raise $4.2 million for breast cancer research but another $1.5 million for the LGBT organization here in New York.

"Ms. Liz, are you ready to be blown away?" Jorge asked as I arrived to do my final walk thru before heading to the spa to be pampered before arriving this evening.
"Lead the way, my boy."
Walking into that grand ballroom was nothing short of heartstopping. Every table was beautifully set with Jasper's Tree and the metal letter table markers. The room looks like an enchanted forest, which is what Edward said he wanted and had even sketched it out to try and help Jorge see his vision. And damn did his team make my baby's vision come to life, my Charles would be so proud of our boy.
"Momma, you okay?" Jasper asks while wiping a tear from my cheek.
"Yes, I'm just fine. Just some memories rolling down my cheeks. It happens at times like these, when Charles should be here with us."
"Come on, let's get y'all down stairs to see what Jorge has done with the ballroom. Jasper, make sure you have a hold on Edward. I'm afraid he may pass out once he sees his dream come to life."
"Yes ma'ma. " he replies with that southern charm that melts my heart every time.

"OH MY GOD"
My vision. How did Jorge pull this off? Every last detail has been seen too. No detail too small has been missed. Momma has made the impossible possible.
"Jazz, baby look what momma did."
"I know baby, your dream has come true." My Jazz man reassures me.
"Come on now, we've got to get dressed so we can shock the shit out of Tink and the crew." Jazz says grabbing my hand to pull me back out of the ballroom.
"Fine, but I still get to enter on my terms."
"Anything you want baby."
I can't wait to see the looks on everyone's faces when we come in dancing. I've got it all planned out with Momma and I can't wait to see how it all plays out. After quick showers alone, we are dressed to impress and ready to party. The ride down to the lobby is exciting and the view is breathtaking with Central Park in the background at sunset with the snow on the ground looks just as enchanted as my ballroom dream.
"Ready sweets?"
"Always."
"Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please. Please give me a hand in welcoming one of your favorite couples, Misters Jasper and Edward Mason-Whitlock." the D.J. announces just as the music for Bruno Mars Marry Me starts to play.
