Shower Pix

Katherine sets up the tables. She was in charge of the florals and the other girls handled the other decorations. The theme was purple!

Flower centerpieces created by Katherine. Note the lavender roses!

Megan opens one of many gifts. I gave her a set of storage containers and a $200 gift card to Bed, Bath and Beyond.

So I survived

Despite the fact my dress hardly fit, it was still comfortable enough. My friends Virginia, Tina and Sue were there, along with my sil Noreen. It was  nice to have my friends meet each other.The food was pretty good. Watching Megan unwrap her gifts wasn't so boring because we did a Bingo game. I didn't win anything but I don't care because I already have too much 'stuff.'

We hauled the gifts in my SUV and Michael's car. Katherine drove my car. She had to use my SUV because she made a whole bunch of beautiful flower arrangements. Photos to come.

Michael came by towards the end and everyone got a kick out of him. He's so handsome and I could almost cry with joy that he is so very much in love and so happy.

We were surprised he hadn't seen Sue in years!! Oh well, we'll all catch up at the wedding.

Heading to AC tomorrow. I will try to post pictures from the shower soon.

How is it already September 19?

Time is going by too fast. The wedding is in less than 2 months.

I'm happy to report I found  a dress that actually looks nice on me. Katherine came with  me and we found it at Lord & Taylor's, of all places. And it was only $92! I love clearance racks.

It is dark blue, sleeveless and covered with sequins. There is a matching lacy jacket. Now all I have to do is find shoes.

But at least the  nightmare of finding a dress for my weird, fat body is over. One item checked off.

The shower is Saturday. I hate showers.
