IT POURED!!! ***UPDATED WITH PICS***

today was my shower. I was very surprised by where it was, i was so happy bc i wanted something modern and thought about this place bc of their decor but i didnt give suggestions because i stayed out of it, it was at Island in astoria. Everybody did such a great job, for the favors they did this whole gift set with eyeshadows, blush, 2 nail polishes, lipsticks, other make up, tweezers and i forgot what else plus on all the tables there were packets of drink mix that said a perfect blend and also Denises bridal shower with the date, i think they were cosmopolitan drink mix packets. The food was very good, and had a great time but it goes by so fast. Everybody kept coming up to me to say what a great job my moh did and how organized she was lol, all the girls were so great and it was like an assembly line when i opened up gifts, we actually did the gifts pretty quick. Everybody kept asking when i was going to open gifts bc it was going to take a long time but i finished and still had time left and we didnt start right away. Had such an amazing day. Our Fg which is in red in the pics was the cutest thing she kept throwing petals everywhere bc shes been practicing alot at home and wanted to show me, and then she was posing for me for pictures. Also FMIL got us a flat screen tv so that was awesome and so generous. I have to say my mom and MOH did a great job of picking a place, it definitely was the type of place i wanted and its funny bc i had posted on LIW before suggesting this place for a shower and said i would LOVE to have it here and it was too bad i couldnt pick the place

Oooh and the place i guess forgot to write on the cake hahaha but oh well i didnt even care what can you do. The funniest is the pic of me with the knife, my grandmother looks terrified LOL
