Bridal Shower

The countdown is on, my friends!  We’re got less than two months until the big day and pre-wedding festivities are underway (#skirtthewedding #dangjensgettingmarried).  Last weekend, my best friends threw me a bridal shower back in Arizona.  I originally wanted to nix the idea because truth be told, I felt a little uncomfortable with the idea of bringing everyone together to celebrate me.  Just me.  Ack!

Turns out, it was one of my favorite days ever and I’m so glad that I’ll have it to look back on (can’t wait for that Shutterfly book, Em…).  I loved having friends and family from all over in one place.  We started off with a DIY sangria bar, re-hashed old memories both endearing and embarrassing and read advice that everyone left for me and the groom (my favorite is below!).  The highlight had to be Mom and Mother-in-Law taking a shot of Patron together.  Never in my wildest dreams!

I’ve already cooked our first meal using the slow cooker that my friend Christine got us (you know you’re getting old when a crockpot excites you).  We’ll likely be doing our wedding toast with these “his and her” glasses that Emily gifted us.  And of course, we can’t wait to put the honeymoon fund from all of our friends to good use.  Their presence is the best present, but they sure do know how to put the icing on the cake.  A special shoutout to Brynn, Emily and Ashley for putting this all together!  So grateful for the ladies in my life and excited for the days to come!  Next stop: Bachelorette Party in New Orleans!  Woo woo!
