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?

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
