My Bridal Shower!

Wow. It's six months late. Lame. But let me tell you all about my beautiful bridal shower!

My bridal shower was absolutely stunning! It was thrown for me by Bobbe and her friend Sonya. In character with nearly all of our wedding events, the shower ended up right in the middle of a blizzard that day and I was touched that so many wonderful women still found a way to be there for me.
We had just gotten my bridals taken the day before (only just dodging the beginning of the blizzard) so I was in full-on wedding fun zone! It was really fun to have my both events in the same weekend.

We had soup and breadbowls for lunch...homemade soup. It was delicious!
They decorated the table with utensils in our kitchen colors for me to keep! Isn't it beautiful!
(a special thanks to Sammy for the lovely photography!)


I thought this was SUCH a cute idea!
Bobbe found pretty white bowls and had them decorated with vinyl lettering!
I love bowls so I was just tickled over this little detail!
Each of my guests got a little
"Thanks you're sweet!"
candy bag to fill with red and black goodies for the ride home.

They had pictures of Josh and I everywhere!
I love pictures and it made it feel so personal and fun.

This is me trying to explain something very important...
with marshmallows stuffed in my mouth.
Sammy decided that every ribbon from my gifts simply had to be tied into my hair.
A cookbook I wanted and an adorable recipe box from Ashley and Jake.
"I feel pretty! Oh so pretty!"
It was such a wonderful day.
I felt so special and so excited to be with my sweetheart
"now and forever!"
I'm so thankful for an amazing Mother-in-law and so many wonderful women who love me!

Brimming Over!


I'm just so stinkin happy!
No one told me being married to a great guy was so much fun and so wonderful! Okay. Maybe SOMEONE said something. But they must not have said just HOW wonderful it is! Anyway, somewhere along the line, communications did not come through! I am happier now than I have ever been in my entire life. And I had fun being single.
So, for the sake of anyone unsure of how totally AWESOME marriage is...

I love:
Coming home to kisses and questions and long "my day" stories
Waking up to kisses and "how did you sleep?" 's
"I love you" texts, even though I already know
Dreaming about the future
Giggling about the past
Winks
Paying bills together and hoping and hoping all of our checks clear
Working on projects together
Driving together
Lazy Saturday mornings
Prepping lessons together on Sunday mornings
Sex (let's be honest here)
LAUGHING!!
Telling everyone how happy I am

...and so many many other little and big things that contribute to this amazing relationship that I look forward to for all Eternity. I can't wait to go to the Temple with my sweetheart, and I'm so grateful for his love and our abundant life together.
