Another Bridal Shower!

[yamille]

Last night a group of about 12 of my classmates threw me a 2nd bridal shower. It was so thoughtful and sweet- especially since only one of them is coming to Mexico. I am very blessed. Here are a few pics for ya.

 

Someone said if you break a bow- you'll have a baby- so this is me- trying to.

My friends made themselves little outfits out of the bed bath and beyond wrapping paper which was super cute. ha ha

I definately cried at least 5 times. Every card had such a heartfelt, sweet meassage.

I received some really cool gifts- among them a senegalese cookbook!

And... a book to complete my thesis research!

 

I have been super spoiled and am so amazed by all the love.

aww that's so sweet, yamille! i too was amazed at the love and generosity of people (i had THREE showers, when i didn't think i should even have one, considering the cost of attending the wedding, and that most of these people weren't going to be there for it)!

 

i think when people recognize a true and honest love, they want to celebrate it and reward it. congrats!

i didn't think i would or even *should* have a shower, but i had THREE. your wedding is not for awhile yet ... who knows? you could be pleasantly surprised! aren't showers supposed to be surprises anyway?

I have a thread about how I didn't think my sis knew about showers and stuff and was wondering if I was going to have one at all. I totally understand. I will say that I mentioned my desire to FI and he sort of just told me to trust that all my friends and fam know what I need. I had never really wanted one but as I got closer to the wedding... I realized that I did want a girls day- not so much the presents actually but that was really fun. I say put it out into the universe if you really want it.

I didn't know abou this whole bow thing I just thought it was funny. I think when I was younger I would have avaoided breaking a bow- so I get that! I still didn't break one though. Someone got me scissors. We aren't trying till the end of the year anyway.

BOth of mine were a surprise. I had an idea about my family one but I actually didn't think my friends would trek outside the city. I'm no good with surprises. I'm too controlling. My friends had to all come up with several lies.

I am so happy that you had a great shower and great gifts.. you are too adorable trying to break that bow. I was so super careful that everyone as laughing at me.
