Bridal Shower

Picture overload! Don't say you weren't warned.

My sister Angela & I hosted a bridal shower for my sister Ashley on Saturday, August 15. It was held over in Logan at one of Ashley's co-workers homes. She had a beautiful home!! JEALOUS! Angela & I were quite thrown by having it at a strangers house because what if we needed _____ or ______ or what if ______ . . .but it ended up being just fine. Watching my sister's wedding unfold makes me realize how people (ALL people...myself included) let so many things get to them when they aren't that big of a deal or not in your control and somehow things always work out just fine.
The invite
We had wonderful food. BLT squares...cheesecake pops...and chicken pasta salad. I love to cook & love to try new things, so we had fun with a couple new recipes.

Hot pink, black & white were our decorating colors. I thought it was cute. Angela & I gave Ashley the 11x14 picture that is on the table. It's a small collage of some of their engagement pictures.
We had a great turnout!! We were all pretty nervous that not many people would show because Ashley was having 17 bridal showers! (okay...not 17, but I think 5) Several people came & that was awesome.

Caleb is supposed to getting use to wearing a tie for the wedding. So I put it on him the other morning. Dollar bills in his diaper would make this picture a TEN!!

My mom and I looked at your post last night and she was still crackin up. I heard the laugh-snort-laugh for 3 minutes.

It's just that you try so hard to get/keep your groove on and the forces are just NOT going to let it happen.
It still does make me laugh. Sandra's orange halo is the best!
