Apparently my MOH and my FH are amazing at keeping me out of the loop because I completely thought I was not having a shower (hence my freak out post on Thursday). Even with my prodding, I totally thought no shower. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! It was at my apartment and I loved everything about it; my MOH did an amazing job coordinating and decorating - wow is all I can say! It was cozy, fun, intimate and the food (cooked by my FMIL, FFIL and FSIL) was delicious. FH and I went to the movies to see 'Fever Pitch' (which I highly recommend BTW even though I'm a Yankee fan) upon coming back home I was met with everyone, including my mom who flew in, and had the best shower ever...it was more than I could have imagined.
Here are some pics:

Aw girls thanks so much! Your comments are the sweetest...and yes, I am a VERY lucky girl. God is good.

I did just come back from shopping for my dress with my mom and that wasn't so good...

About the cake...not only does it look great, but it tastes fabulous! It's from Villabate in Bay Ridge and definitely worth the trip to Brooklyn. Check out their site: www.villabate.net

My cake was fondant (very light and sweet) with yellow cake and French Creme and Chocolate Mousse. YUM!
