Bridal Showers

A few Saturdays ago I went to Mallory's bridal shower. It is surreal to think that soon both of us will soon be married to our high school sweethearts. It is crazy to think that once apon a long time ago all 4 of us marched on the same field together in highschool. Who would have known that the girl that I nicked name Booger would be marrying one of my oldest and dearest friends in nearly 4 weeks? I am so happy for them and I hope that they have a long and happy journey in life together.

They are getting married at Mallory's grandparents home in their backyard. The house and the setting is beautiful but a little bit on the small side. I overheard one of the bridesmaids who said that there is going to be assigned seating for the ceremony and 20-30 guests will need to stand. At first I was a little shocked to hear the idea but thinking about it more it makes total sense. I am just hoping that I am one of the honored guests to get a seat. I am the best man's wife and one of the original 3.

After leaving the bridal shower it is starting to make me more excited and a little anxious for the shower that I putting on in 4 weeks. I thought I had the whole plan all figured out but I've come across a couple of kinks that I still need to work out. One big kink was the location. I was not really excited about a lingerie shower in a park or a resturant. I would rather have it in someone's backyard like mine was. I was a little worried about the games too but after Mallory's shower with only one participating game, one necklace "don't say the word" game and one raffle it seemed perfect. It wasn't very dragged out and the majority of the people knew each other (except me) so they didn't need a bunch of break the ice games.

My shower plans are coming right along. I am getting very excited for Cassandra's wedding. I have my dress and shoes and now just need some bomb accessories. I am looking for some great earrings and a great bangle of some sort.
