May Showers

Last weekend I went home for some good wedding planning on top of good friend and family time! I was in the airport last Thursday when I got a call from the Bridal Salon saying that my dress was in early! Woohoo!! You better believe that is the first thing my mom and I did Friday morning! It fits perfectly!! Sunday afternoon, Renee Schuster, Debbie Wright, and my Aunt Sharon honored Mike and I with a wedding shower! I must admit that I was a little nervous being the center of attention like that, but it turned out to be just a lovely time! The midwest was having crazy showers, though, and it was literally pouring and hailing as the guests started to arrive. I promise you Seattle does not have storms like that! This is the most beautiful centerpiece I have ever seen. I wish I had registered for a vase like that!
My mom and I in our fancy shoes. I just love her SO much. Thanks for all of your help last weekend mom! (She knows how neurotic I am, so she had all of my coping foods in place!)

Grandma Betty was able to come to the shower as well! It was wonderful to have her there!

This is Claire, one of my bridesmaids. She was able to come in to town Saturday night, and we had great time to catch up! (I hadn't seen her since October!!) She is getting married on June 21st, which is right around the corner!!!

Kappas are ladies. Pictured L-R. Britt (MOH), myself, Alison (reader). We were all Kappas at Mizzou, and we are very excited that the chairs at the reception hall have Fleur de Lis on them. (That was the Kappa flower!)

My new sister, Lindsey. I've always wanted a sister, and this is the perfect woman for that job!

Here come the gifts. I don't even own a spice, let alone enough spices to necessitate an entire rack! Just kidding. Mike and I are SUPER pumped about the spice rack! (apparently I had a nose itch as well!)

My mom handed out the gifts, and Britt recorded them. She is hilarious- she left me little notes next to the description. Thanks for your help ladies!

Apparently we got a kick out of the electric skillet!
