Blushing Bride (to be)

My mom and I had the honor of hosting a bridal shower for my dear friend Kelsey last weekend. She and Mark are getting married next month, and the shower the first of a number of exciting celebrations leading up to their big day. Kelsey and I have been friends and her friendship means the world to me, so I was so excited to throw a fun party in her honor.

I took Thursday off of work to relax and get some errands done after a number of crazy weeks at work. Then my mom arrived that afternoon and the party prep began. Friday was dedicated to grocery shopping, food prep, cleaning, and decorating. It was so fun to be able to spend the day preparing with my mom, and her company made the time fly as we worked through our to do list.

By Saturday, almost everything was done so we were able to spend the morning playing with the munchkin.

We lucked out with an amazing day - the hottest this year so far with temps in the 80s - so the 20ish of us were able to enjoy time out on the patio while we snacked and visited (another first for the year).

I think the bride-to-be had a great time, and she sure did make out like a bandit. I'm not sure there's anything left on her registry!

Love ya, Kels...can't wait for your big day!
