My second bridal shower was planned for this day. I was excited, and a bit nervous because I still am surprised that anyone would show up to celebrate me and even more surprised that they would bring gifts! Ha.
Well, I arrived at the shower to find that there were so many people I loved there who have been there for me throughout my life thus far. Even my babysitter (Amber) from growing up was there. How sweet is that?! She is darling, and has like 3 of her own kids!
My Grandma Sherry and Aunt Kim flew out that morning just for the shower! Seriously! They couldn't be any cuter. I love them so much!! Seeing them made me very happy and I still cannot get over the fact that they flew here and back that day just for me.
My aunts were all there except for Brenda since she lives in Georgia, but she is even coming out to the wedding! Young Women leaders were there, my friend Jaylin from all my college classes was there, and Janet and Erika came as well! I really enjoyed talking to so many people and getting to catch up with them.
My mom decorated the place so beautifully and had made some cute decorations and food. They reminded me how blessed I am.
I did get some pretty awesome gifts too!!! A kitchen Aid, dishes that are gorgeous, a blender, a rice cooker, silverware, table linens, tools, sheets and more! I'm glad people are so kind to couples who are just starting out! There is no way we would be able to get all of those things on our own.
The rest of the day was filled with me running around to get a few projects done. Later that night I met Bryan at IHop for dinner. That boy has been working like crazy during finals and still taking his own. I was really happy that we did get to go to dinner together and spend a bit of time even though it wasn't a lot. I feel bad because sometimes I complain and stress, but he really does always make sure he spends time with me. He is kind of great, and I am excited to marry him!
