I was soooo surprised!!! The wedding is not until Oct 1st...they really got me having it this early. I have to brag about how amazing my mom, my sisters and bridesmaids are. They did so many creative things that I've never seen at a shower before (and I've been to many). They did everything themselves ....they're crazy. Huge salad bar for lunch...with everything you can imagine from grilled chicken and steak to salmon and shrimp, cookie cutters for favors-each with a recipe on the tag (every single one was different...there were 100 of them), centerpieces were herb plants in a measuring cup, the list goes on. They all worked so hard on everything and kept it all from me!!!! I had such a great time I wanted to share it with all of you!! Hopefully when I get some pictures, I can figure out how to put them on here.

Re: My shower was yesterday!!!!
Oh yeah....I forgot to add the best part....
Not only did my Dad send me a gift, 'to my little girl' (it was our cake topper)
BUT, also my grandmother, who passed away 13 years ago, had made a hand-croched lace table cloth for me many years ago (for when I got married), and my mom wraped it with a card from her. It was the sweetest thing I had ever seen. I was in tears opening it.
