PFE Bridal Shower


Cinco de Mayo was my first bridal shower! My wonderful Kindergarten team threw me a great party. Above is the cake that they had made. The picture is even edible! I was going to save the picture part of the cake, but then thought..."What am I going to do with an edible picture of myself?" Eating it was the only thing that came to mind, and we all know I should not be eating whole "pictures" of cake by myself! It was beautiful, none the less!

The ladies wouldn't let me into the library until it was all set up. They sent Maddie and Lauren to my room to get me. They all put so much work into making it wonderful!

Robbin really wants to get married again (still to Scott) just so she can get lots of presents. She was a little coveteous of all my gifts! Especially these pretty green ones.

Here are my favorite Pine Forest people (minus Alona!)... (From left to right: Lila, Kelly, Robbin, Me, Candice, and Carrie.) I have worked at Pine Forest for 5 1/2 years. These women have become some of my very best friends.

I brought the picture frame that Adam gave me when he proposed. We had it set up on the refreshment table. It was a big hit. Everyone loved looking at all of the pictures. I think some people were a little shocked by some of the pictures...we tend to be silly people!

Robbin and Kelly were in charge of the soda. Alona and I got in line to get something to drink and they asked Alona if she wanted Sprite or Coke. She said Sprite. Robbin kind of gasped and got a worried look on her face and turned to me and said "Are you guys allowed to drink Sprite?" I assured her that we were. Alona got mad at Robbin for thinking that she would take something that she wasn't supposed to. It was really funny!

We can't pass up a sister picture opportunity!

Carrie and Lila were fantastic cake servers!

After everyone had their food, the fun began...at least for me. I got to open all of the presents. I got a little spoiled. I am not really sure why men don't have groom showers. What could be better than eating food and opening presents?!

The first grade team got me this wall hanging. It is so cute. Janelle picked it out. She chose that one because Alona and I introduced her to Pandora and she loves our music...and since this had music lyrics on it, she got it. I love it!

Here are my two principals. Nancy, on the left, left this year to open a new school and TJ took her spot. Luckily we were all wearing green...even with lime green shoes!

What a fun day. Thanks to everyone who made this day great. I really do feel so loved and blessed to have gotten to work with such great people.

Did you eat the piece of cake with your fiance's face on it? If so, did it feel like your were kissing him? If so, that's weird . . . I'll bet he's a good kisser . . . better than a piece of cake even.

That was a fun fiesta. On a side note, Anonymous, she didn't eat his face, I did, but for other reasons than kissing . . .
