In early in mid-June I had two wedding showers! It was so much fun. :) The first shower was at my home church in Roseau. It was so fun to see so many women from my church, as well as, 5 of my aunts! I have been to quite a few showers at my church and so it was a weird feeling to believe that this was me getting married! They were so generous and it was just good to hear their words of encouragement and advice, as well as excitement for us. It was a great evening.
The second shower was in Warren with Tom's mom's friends! It was also a great evening and it was fun to hear how they all knew Tom and kind of get to know the women of Warren (since we are hoping to move there next spring)! They had ADOREABLE decorations that went with our invitation design. (I'll get the pictures from Kari so you can see what it looked like.) They were also so warm and welcoming to me that it just made it so comfortable. Again, another great evening! We feel SO blessed by all that these women did for us and how everyone in the process has helped us with getting ready for the wedding and marriage! We just truly thank God for all of these blessings.
The little helpers that brought me gifts from the table (Ashley and Abby)
Tessa and Mom helped to take wrapping paper and write down the gifts...little Samantha helped bring me gifts, too :)
With all of my aunts that were able to make it-Linda, Evadell, me, Char, Marge, my Mom, and Judy
The shower hosts-Joni, Ann, Barb, Rachel, Lynn, Linda, and Tessa
Here are all our formal pictures with our wedding party, family, etc. We really loved these!
Whoops! I got my lipstick on Tom's shirt collar and vest when I hugged him! (Tara took a close up of it so that Tom could see what it looked like.) :)
I LOVE this one of the bridal party in the church!
We just really enjoyed our pictures. Everyone was always ready and then just went nice and quick!
Leah, one of my best friends and personal attendant, was an angel and painted my toenails.
My wonderful sister-in-law, Heidi, did my hair, and some make up.
Rebekah, Tom's sister and also my good friend, did Erica's hair.
The classic bathroom picture. :)
