My Bridal Shower

On February 8th, the wondrous Kathy Jones and Candace Vejnar threw me a bridal shower and it was SO MUCH FUN! I was a little hesitant going in because I felt not worthy, all these wonderful ladies gathered to celebrate for me? All that hard work for me? But, once I got there and said hi to everyone, it was a blast! I was so thankful that most of my friends were able to make it along with the wonderful woman in the ward. I had so much fun and such a great time, and Sammy and I are so grateful for the help and advice for our future home!
We played the purse game, I wasn't entirely sure how to play so I threw my sunglasses on the floor very quickly the first round, it was quite funny. My mom ended up tying for second place with her Mary Poppins purse. The winning item? A tape measurer

Then we played the bubble gum game where you put one piece in every time you get a question wrong. I ended up with ten pieces in my mouth. It was the first time Double Bubble didn't lose it's flavor for me.

I could only get a baby bubble.






So cute, made by Kathy and I even got to keep them! They're going in our apartment : ) 


The food. . . Oh the amazingness of the food!

This was my face when I opened my first set of lingerie… From my grandma. That's right, my grandma. It was awesome and funny and awkward and very pretty ;)
These were Sammy's responses for the bubble gum game. Everyone was very impressed that he remembered our first date and kiss. He's a keeper : ) 

Super cute date jar ideas! In my favorite colors! 

These were the pages for the advice book. They are so adorable and completely match the flowers I've been making since, forever. There were a lot of sheets left over so I might use them for our guest book at the wedding because I'd hate for them to go to waste! 

I had such a great time at my bridal shower. It was such a great time with all those ladies and I'm so grateful for all the thought and love that went into this. : ) I'm still working on thank you cards! Even though I know those won't ever express my thanks enough. Thank you thank you thank you!

  1. Impressed with these Bridal Shower photos. These photos are stunning. Well, these days I am very busy in arranging my sister’s surprise wedding shower. She is having a DIY rustic themed ceremony at some local San Francisco wedding venues and I want to use a shower theme which matches with their wedding theme. Do you have any ideas?

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...

Book of Mormon Musical?

Well, it's here in Denver. Kind of hard not to notice it with all the signs. The Book of Mormon Musical. I have very mixed feeling about this. I know that in the grand scheme of the universe, this musical shouldn't bother me so much. But it really, really does. The Book of Mormon is something very near and dear to my heart. And I know that people make fun of the LDS church on an hourly basis. I've heard all the jokes. Not a big deal. Plus, I'm blonde. I can take a joke. But this musical really disturbs me. I listened to the songs when they were released, thinking oh, I'm gonna be one of those cool people who fights for this play. But then I really started listening to the words. And they bothered me. A lot. Saying that missionaries who are out in the field make up things on the spot, like having sex with frogs will get rid of aids, it bugged me. I don't even want to talk about some of the other songs. I heard them and felt, just not right. I was comforted by t...
I'm not going to waste time talking about why I have a blog or how this is my first new blog post, because I like to have faith in the human race and the fact that they can read and can interpret these things on there own. I mean, there aren't any posts under this one so obviously this is my first new post. And having a blog is not a mandatory thing to live so one could hypothetically conclude that this is for fun. That is hypothetically speaking of course. I just used 89 words explaining why I didn't need to explain something. I hope I counted that right. Anyways.  Three years ago today on a rainy day I remember being in a basement with a bunch of little people and adults for a scout thing. And I remember them talking about how a certain friend of mine was going to be a senior and how that's so crazy. I was just going to be a freshman at the time and thought I was the coolest thing since duct tape. (Sorry sliced bread, duct tape is waay cooler.) Now that friend is get...
