My computer has been acting up big time so I haven't been on much lately. I just wanted to put some stuff up about my shower that was thrown for me on 2/24. It was so cute and my bp did a great job of planning everything. They had it at a Knights of Colombus in my old neighborhood in the Bronx.
They had martini glass centerpieces with pink and green liquids in them (our dress colors).
Chocolate favors were made by my sil. Some were pink tulip lollipops that she put into green flower pots. Others were little boxes made of chocolate that had m&m's inside.
At every place setting there was a little pamphlet that one of my bm's made up that had little games in it...like a crowssword puzzle about me and FH, a Mad LIbs about me and FH, pics of different things that you had to X out my dislikes and draw a heart around my likes (i.e. heart around the yankees, X out cats). It was soo cute and thoughtful.
Then the other favors were keychains with a pic of me and FH in it that had a quote from one of our favorite bands on it (an irish bar band from the bronx...shilelagh law - the quote is 'I thank the stars above I met you and for the days we've yet to spend, with you my friend'.
We got a ton of gifts, lots of gift cards and some $$ too. Such a great day. I unfortunately was in the middle of having a nasty flu, but still had a great time. So much thoughtful detail went into the planning. I loved it!
