Work Bridal Shower

Last Thursday the ladies at my work threw me a bridal shower. I had so much fun!! Who can resist being showered with presents...and I got to cheat on my diet!! I don't think I can even pick a best part...It was all wonderful. The food was delicious and the game was so much fun!!! The lei was because our honeymoon is in Hawaii and it smelled HEAVENLY!!! it was made out of orchids and tubarose (i probably didnt' spell that right, sorry) I called the florist right after the shower and had her add it to the bouquet. :D

Everyone hanging out and enjoying the weather...it was like 90 out that day. We played a really fun game that was similar to a mad lib. the Hostess, Heather...in the blue shirt, asked me before hand for the story of how Scott and I met, how he proposed and our plans for after the marriage. Then she wrote a little story to go with it. At the shower she brought out a tray with about 20 household products on it and gave us time to memorize everything. Then she gave us the stories and we had to fill in the blanks in the story with the names of the products she had shown us. I would have thought it was a super fun game, even if I hadn't won! haha :D

After we ate and talked and played it was time for presents....YAY!!! haha They were so sweet to do all this for me and I'm grateful for all of my neat stuff...I don't think they've seen someone so excited over vacuum in a long time!! We also had a most delicious lemon cake....it was so good, tart and sweet at the same time!!

And of course, every bride has to save the ribbon for her rehearsal bouquet...We shook things up a bit by making a very fine hat.

I especially liked the little trail of ribbon down the back...like a wedding mullet if you will...business in the front, party in the back. I don't know if the hat will make it to the rehearsal (i really hope it doesn't...one picture with that thing is all a person needs in their entire life!!!) but it was fun while it lasted. It was a bit surreal to be at a shower for my own wedding...where did the time go? I get more excited every day and I can't wait to be married to Scott!!!
