So last week I had my bridal showers. One given by Wendy Clark and the other by Amanda Poole and Penny Lindsay. I enjoyed them so much. They made the fact that I'm getting married in 9 days very real!!

At the shower Wendy gave me they played a game where you pass around a present till the music stops, kind of like hot potato, and when the music stopped, the person who has the present got to unwrap a layer from it. it was wrapped like 12 times or something. It was fun. The crazy part was that I was the music! I got to sing songs while they passed the present. It was amazing that out of all the songs I know, I had a hard time coming up with them. My brain really isn't on straight. i think it took a vacation.

At the other shower that Amanda and Penny gave, they did this really neat thing for Phil and me. they wrote us a fairy tale!!!! It was so neat. they made a book that had pictures of us in it and fairy tale like captions on the pages. It was kind of a pass the story on sort of thing, and everyone got a chance to write in it and continue the story. There were like 30 ladies there so it ended up pretty long. After I had unwrapped all the gifts they had me read it out loud. It was so funny!!! I love it! I went home and read it to Phil. He loved it too. The theme for our wedding is once upon a time, and that totally went right with it. Such a great idea.

At the showers, I was overwhelmed with all the neat things that people gave me. I feel so much gratitude for the Love that everyone has shown me. I don't really know how to say what I feel in my heart, I'm just so amazed and grateful. Thank you everybody!!!
