Bridal shower fun

Today is just about the first time that I've had time and actually wanted to post something. The bridal shower went fairly well. The theme was "Firsts". We were small in numbers but we had a good time. We pretty much just sat and chatted the whole time. Yay for not having to play stupid bridal shower games!

Here's a slightly blurry picture of the advice jar Cristi and I made. I wanted to do something cute and Cristi had some rub-on transfers, so we picked this one and put it on. I later found the flowers to put both on the jar and on the lid, which, unfortunately, you can't see.


These were the delicious mini chicken salad sandwiches I made for the shower. Unfortunately, there was way too much chicken salad left over, partly because the recipe makes a large amount. And I couldn't eat any of it because I got tired of eating it quite quickly. But it was good!


Jami helped me out right before the shower by cutting up fruit. I thought she was just going to pile it on plates. She took it one step further and made a couple of fruit creations.

Another Jamie fruit creation.


By this point, I was done with making things look nice, so I just threw crackers onto a plate. Sadly, I failed to capture the store bought cheese ball on camera.


And finally, here's Jami wearing the bright green reversible hat that she received as part of a gift for "First trip together".
