On Saturday, Stephanie, Mary, Joanie & I threw a fabulous wedding shower for Lauren. It was outside by Mary's awesome pool, and everyone had a great time! The invitations had a "time" theme with everyone receiving a specific hour & their present matched that time. I had 7am, so she received a coffee maker + frother + to go coffee cups + coffee! Our food was in line with the "time" theme. We had breakfast, lunch & dinner. Breakfast was small wontons with egg filling & fruit kabob & mimosa's, lunch was two types of salad (quinoi with veggies+ green salad) & long island iced tea, and dinner was pasta & breadstick and sangria. Our dessert was a total hit too - yummy pastries from Russo's Gourmet Express and mudslides. As you can see, each meal had a drink attached as well so we had a bit of a buzz by the end of the night.
Lauren got many great gifts, and we all enjoyed ourselves. We are so excited for November 12th!!
I was busy being a hostess & serving, so I did not take too many pictures. Sisters & aunts, please send me your pictures for the blog! Lauren is opening some gifts - I think this was the breakfast time....
Cute girls!
Grandma & the youngest grandchild, Lizzie.
More pretty girls!
Fun shower games - Rosie's dress fell down and Caty won the contest! They were all very cute & fun dresses!
The other fun game was similar to the Newlywed Game - Debbie taped Jesse answering 20 questions & Lauren had to see if she answered them the same way. Needless to say, she got 6 out of 20 correct. It was fun, and Jesse had so many sweet things to say about Lauren.
Now, we need to find some wedding shoes for Rosie, Anna & Jo and a dress for me!
