Details of the Bridal Shower.

Over the next few days, I thought I would share with you guys what had me so busy these past two weeks.

Remember the Bridal Shower ideas I shared here.

Well here is how they turned out...... 

I didn't have my nice camera with me during the shower as I was busy organizing things, but here are some pictures to give you an idea of the decorations. 

The first shows the pompoms made out of tissue paper, my amazing mom helped me with these.

I think they look amazing and are pretty easy. Definitely want to use these again if I plan another party. 

I didn't get a picture of the cupcake style lights, they did work although we had to tape them all together to get them to stay on the lights.

This was a fun game we played where the guests had to guess whether the happy couple were dating, engaged or just met in the pictures.

It was quite a hard game, I will admit.

Of course we did the toilet paper brides. 

Don't they look lovely? 

So many of the ladies brought such wonderful advice to share with my sister about marriage.

I was so thankful for such a wonderful group of ladies who were then willing to pray over my sister as she prepared for her upcoming marriage.

She has married into such a godly family full of wonderful women, her sister-in-laws are the sweetest ladies.

Praying that they are having a wonderful start to married life as they return from their honeymoon today.

What advice would you give a soon-to-be Bride?

Much Love,

Short but Sweet Visits.

Hey Sweet Friends,

I think this has been the longest blog break in a while for me. 

I am back from England now so hopefully will be back in the swing of things in the next few days.

I apologize for my lack of replying to emails and things, I hope to catch up with many of you soon.

It was a wonderful time to take a break and enjoy the precious time I had with my family and sister & now brother =)

The first picture is the view from my window at my parent's house.

Very different from my view here in the states. 

I will update y'all slowly about the wedding and things as it is such a joy to share such a precious memory.

My brother-in-law's (doesn't that sound awesome!) family came into town a few days after I did and we had dinner with them before the busyness of rehearsal dinners, bridal showers and other planning was in full force.

Such a fun evening spending time together enjoying our gathering to celebrate the start of Z&D's marriage.

We got to celebrate D's sweet sister's birthday.

I was so thankful to see them again, they have been leaving overseas the past year after living less than a mile from our old house.

So sweet reunions all round.

The sweet couple walked the archway for the ceremony up to my grandma's garage where we stored all the decorations to go in the gardens for the wedding.

They set it down and posed for a picture.

Aren't they sweet?

So thankful for encouraging sweet friendships.

The time was too short.

But I'm thankful that now we are all family, we shall hopefully see more of each other.

That's all for me today as I am still trying to unpack and get over jetlag.

Love you all!
