I have seen so many fun party details along the way and there were many things that I wanted to do. If only time and money weren't an issue. Ha! Here are some of the details of the day.
The spread of yummy food! Fruit Skewers & Fruit Dip, Muffins, Quiche, Casserole.
The cake caused me much stress. I really wanted a cute designer cake, but the budget did not allow. I ended up going to the local grocery and having the bakery do this custom design and I was so happy with the way it turned out. And, it was delish! Can't beat that for $20.00!!
Fun times with sweet friends =)
Present time!! Grace got lots of great things. Isn't it funny how we can get so excited about roasting pans, baking sheets and trash cans when we are newlyweds?! I think that we should have "wedding" showers for married people for every 10 years of marriage, don't you?
Some of the sweetest memories I have of today were when we all gathered around the Bride-to-be and shared advice and words of wisdom about being married. There are some very wise, godly women that were surrounding us today and it was wonderful to be able to learn even more from them. We then had a time of prayer for Josh, Grace and Miss E and there was not a dry eye in the place. A time to treasure, for sure!
The Bridal Party (minus Miss Priss)
Not much longer 'til the big day! I can't wait!!
What a gorgeous shower!!!

ReplyDeleteWhat a cute cake! Can't believe it's from a grocery store, but you know, my girls' birthday cakes from there last year were the best we've had.
ReplyDeleteI love the prayer time with the other ladies. What a special moment. We have so much to learn from other women ahead of us in their journey.
I'm with you on the shower every 10 years. I just said this last weekend when we were at a shower for a former youth student. I need new towels!! :)
