This past Sunday was our bridal shower!  My aunts Sue and Jeanne hosted, with the graceful assistance of my uncle Matt and various other volunteers from the family.  I was so excited about it, and I can't believe that it came and went so quickly!  I loved hearing little bits about the planning, like how my family got together one day to solidify decorations, and to taste test some of the dishes they'd make for the event. 

I have a really talented family, and moreover, a caring and loving family.  It felt really special that everyone pitched in in their own way.  My other aunt Sue made the MOST delicious cupcakes (that I, thank god, took home leftovers of!).  My grandpa volunteered to be doorman, escorting guests to the right area of the building.  My lovely maid of honor, Miranda, came armed and ready with a notebook for jotting down gifts.  People came from everywhere, including a group of my friends that I've never seen all together at once.  Seeing them all around a table together warmed my heart and made me even more excited for the wedding!

Mike and I got lots of gifts, too!  I'm so excited about building our life together and using our new dishes, towels, and other great things!  It feels like "our" stuff, rather than "mine" or "his."

Looking forward to reporting on more wedding events!
