This past Sunday, my wonderful and talented aunt along with my amazing Mom, hosted a shower for me at my aunt’s home. In attendance were my cousins from Calgary, my aunt from Vancouver, Blaine’s Mom all the way from Manitoba and his sister, my brother’s girlfriend, my Mom’s long-time girlfriends, my childhood neighbours and neighbour’s daughter whom I used to babysit…and HER daughter, and of course my ever-beautiful bridesmaids! It was so nice to visit with everyone, and it really started to get me pumped for the upcoming “big event”.
We feasted on yummy seafood crepes and salad and fruit, and for dessert we had a mouthwatering strawberry trifle, and gourmet chocolate dipped strawberries…all made from scratch by my aunt and mom! My mom even made cranberry pistachio chocolate bark wrapped in individual bags tied with a ribbon in our wedding colour!
We received gifts fit for a Queen (I sure feel like one)…we are so lucky to have all of these wonderful and generous people in our lives to celebrate with us! When I got home I got to show Blaine all of the gifts we received…I think he was just as amazed as I was that the two of us could be so lucky
