ok so Im taking it upon my self to plan my own shower

ok so heres the thing- im planning my own shower, My mom and my Grandmother both have passed away recently and my 2 best
friends are preggo( one will probably give birth around my shower time) So there really isnt anyone else to do it. DH mom and stepmom
have said that they would like to plan it but they havent even given it much though as of yet and Im due in June. yesterday I had made
a list of people to invite and addresses and Planned on giving the list to Bryan's mom if she asked- well she didnt. Then I talked to
Bryan about it yesterday and he said they werent planning on doing invitations!!!!!!! They are just going to do word of mouth and basically only
the people that Bryans family knows personally will be there ( meaning only Bryans side of the family) . Then Bryan
tells me that if I want to be involved I can and when do I want to have my shower and so on- they havent done anything as of yet anyway so I could get the ball rolling and
Bryan is going to help me. So basically now Im taking it upon myself to plan my own shower with Dh- Has anyone had to do this or know of anyone who did this, Ive been looking into places to have this event and plan on doing basically everything myself becuase these people are getting to me big time.

That is so terrible that your ILs aren't planning a proper shower for you. You definitely deserve one.

Argh... I'm right there with you No grandparents, and my mom is moving to Washington State in a couple of months so I know she won't plan anything. My mother-in-law is FABULOUS, but she lives in Israel with the rest of DH's family, so I don't exactly think she's going to plan something from another country... DH and I talked about it and we agreed that we're just going to have to make sure we save some money over the next few months to make sure we can buy everything ourselves...
