First, I was blessed to attend THE MOST elegant bridal shower I have ever been privvy to! Now, if you know me well, you know I love the "presentation" of food. When I have people over, I like things to be 'just right'. I like everything to have it's own serving dish and for all the dishes to match. Well, Ms. Alison Diven (hostess) and another Allison (person who owned the home) totally put my hostess skills to shame! :) Their work was truly an artform and they are artists.
Me and the beautiful bride-to-be, Susan
Some of the food.
This was the beautiful coffee/tea station. Each cup had a heart-shaped piece of sugar that rested on the edge of the cup.
The whole table display w/o candles lit.
On Sunday, I had the utmost privilage of attending Elizabeth's baby shower. I have known Elizabeth for years, but really did not get the opportunity to know her well until I had the pleasure of introducing her future husband to her! :) **He is my best friend's brother.** So, now I get to see her at all the family events. Definitely a bonus!
Here is one of her maternity pictures. Her husband carved the name letters AND hand-made their son's crib! He is quite the wood-worker!
The beautiful diaper cake.
The yummy cake made to match the invitations.
The beautiful signature plate her friends got her.
Scotty and I were invited this weekend to celebrate a very special 1st birthday to Mr. Christian Sparks! He is the most handsome, joyful little boy. He received tons of wonderful gifts, and we really had the best time catching up with friends and enjoying everyone's beautiful children!
Happy birthday Christian!
Whew! Definitely a busy weekend!!! On top of all the fun, I got the WORST sore throat! Seriously. I have recently had my very first adult ear infection and now my first adult sore throat. It sounds silly going to a doctor just to say, "my throat hurts". But, honestly I could not even swallow without it feeling like I was swallowing thumb tacks! It was horrible! He gave me 2 antibiotics and said the sore throat should subside in about 48 hours. *sigh* All I know, is I will forever have the utmost empathy for little ones when their parents tell me they have an ear infection or sore throat. I can understand why they cry continuously or are fussy 24/7. I felt like doing the same thing, and I'm 28!
