Bridal Shower

As we count down the days to the BIG DAY (October 13th -- Andrew and Sarah's wedding), we keep checking off the things that need to be done. Of course, *I* don't have nearly as much to do as the kids do, but it's fun to see the time passing and their wedding day come closer.

Today was Sarah's bridal shower. It was also the first time I got to meet her Mother (Leah) and Aunt Georgia. What beautiful ladies. They are just as beautiful as Sarah!

The theme of the shower was an English Tea. The tables were beautifully decorated with ivy and old tea pots.































Sarah's good friend Amanda Blue was the shower hostess.

Both of Andrew's Grandmothers were there:
Grandma Millie Durst and Grandma Ruth Kelsey.






















And here is the whole gang:

Bride, Mother, future mother-in-law, Grandmothers and Aunts.

Who's in charge here, anyway?

I constantly ask (okay nag) my family to clean up after themselves, put their dishes in the dish washer, clean up the counter. And put their leftovers away, rather than leaving them out on the counter to dry out.

So, this is what I find when I come home. Yes, someone put their stuff away. No, no one left their leftovers out to get gross.

But. This is not what I wanted!
