Hey Hey!
(This is me in my PARTY dress...>>>>>)
So this weekend was interesting...The Bridal Shower finally arrived! It seemed like there was just so much to do and so little time! (Well...I guess that's how it is with most big events...but still!!) On Saturday, we ran around town getting supplies. I EVEN made my first trip to the liquor store. (Yes, here I am of age to consume alcohol....and NO I DIDN'T drink any alcohol. Haha.) We got our "Mocktails" supplies for later....Then off to the Holland's house to set up!
We were a little tight on time, but somehow we managed to get all of the cupcakes iced (thanks to my icing expertise...) and all of the food set up outside. Then we remembered to save 5 or 10 minutes to get dressed in our party dresses! Whew...When everyone started to arrive, I got out my trustee camera and put it to good use. :)
Rusty was the "Head Bartender" and Martin was the "Apprentice" bartender. Haha. I didn't realize that Rusty had bar tended AFTER he served his mission. Oh well...haha. Needless to say he is PROBABLY the BEST bartender ever. (Not that I have anyone else to compare it to....but that's what everyone else was saying. :) ) He put out a list of Virgin Drinks that he could make ready to order. It was fun! The house has a back patio, with sliding windows leading straight into the kitchen.
I, personally, had a yummy strawberry daiquiri and a mango pina colada! (Jealous, aren't you?...)
Everyone seemed to have a lovely time, even though it was a bit chilly outside. Some even showed up in hats and gloves! A true tea party, this was. My first ever!...Awesome!
Renee was decked out it a lovely pink sash and even stopped long enough to pose and "smile" for a picture! :) Renee, Renee...haha. We had a great day! And I finally got to wear my new dress! (the picture isn't the cutest, but it's the dress we were looking at anyway...) Afterwards, we were completely bushed! Not to mention the cleanup... Haha. Oh well, a party is a party! Up next....the actual Wedding!!! :)
After the party, I went to YSA (Young Single Adults) and we had a dinner cookoff! It was pretty fun! YSA is great because it's the single adults that live in the area. So I get to meet lots of cool people! Everyone here is so happy all the time! It's great!
What else is there to update on?? :( Hmm...Well. I'm still sick. :( We thought I might be able to stick it out and get over it, but it seems that my little cold has turned into a nasty bacterial infection. :( Boo...I'm supposed to go to the doctor today, so we'll see if I can get rid of my illness before next weekend!!! :) Kylie is a little sick as well, but she seems to be doing alright. We were scared at first that it might hit her pretty hard, being pregnant AND being sick, but she's tough! She's scheduled for her next doctor's appointment tomorrow, so we'll see what he has to say!! Yay!
So, there you go! :) Enjoy everyone! (And Katy...you had better update YOUR blog, missy!!!) Cheers!
