my bridal shower was Sunday (04/13/08)

So my bridal shower was Sunday and it was awesome! It was at my fave little Mexican place that serves THE best margarita's around. I am not usually a fan of mexican food, but I always like the food at this place.

 

Anyway, I don't know if you all can get this from me over the internet, but I am extremely shy and honestly can't stand being the center of attention. Like I usually break out in hives and I sweat like crazy, oh yeah and I shake too. So I made it thru my shower and I am so glad it is over! It was so nice and I enjoyed every minute of it, even though I was shaking like a leaf for 3+ hours. My sister (Jill), Jacqueline and myself made the soap favors and they looked so cute in the basket my sister set up, but of course no one got a picture of that. I really wish we had. But I got lots of generous gifts and couldn't ask for a better day with my family and friends!

 

My absolute fave gift was a scrapbook that my friends made for me that covers almost 20 years of friendship. I cried then. I was cracking up, cuz there were pics from when we were like maybe 10 and we would "model" in my bedroom. Put on funky clothes and pose. Hahhaaha, oh lordy. That book was awesome though!

 

Here are a lots of pics. Since you girls are always wanting more, I am just going to give you lots to begin with! Mods, if it's too many or something, just let me know and I can remove a bunch.

(As I am looking at the pictures, I notice that blue and orange were the colors used, I wonder if that was on purpose or if the restaurant always uses it...)

It's in Chalfont, called Los Sarapes. Heidi knows it, since she grew up there. It was delish and it's just the cutest restaurant ever. We did have a great time!
