• Aurelia's Bridal Shower

    Okay, so I didn't take near enough pictures.  And there aren't even any pictures of the gifts.   Oh, well. Here are the few that I do have.

   

  

  The bride-to-be had to drive about 2 1/2 hrs after getting off work at 5.  There were misc. beverages we could help ourselves to while we waited a few minutes for her.

  

  

  Rosie was in charge of the games.  The first one we had to answer questions about Aurelia (full name, dog or cat person, thing she appreciates the most about her husband-to-be, where they are going for their honeymoon, birthdate, where she was born, if he holds her purse while she shops when they are shopping together, etc.)  Once we had ours all filled out Rosie read Aurelia's which were the right answers obviously.

  

  The next game Aurelia had to answer questions about Dave (birth place, what kind of toothpaste he uses, favorite meal, what age he got his first deer and what it was, what his first car was, etc.)  Everytime she had the wrong answer she had to throw a candy bar out to some one else.  I think she got to keep the remaining ones.

  

  Margie, Beth, Kim, and Sharon all had short talks on some aspect of marriage - communication, admiring your husband, submission, and I can't think of the other title. 

  Other than Aurelia's nieces the only children there was Raquel who was sleeping the whole time, Travis, and Chad who was also sleeping most of the time.  I was glad he slept so much cause he had been kind of cranky the whole afternoon when ever he wasn't sleeping.  I was dreading how it might go at the shower, but he did great.
