Lone Star Shower

My teacher friends hosted a beautiful shower for me on April 19th.  Their creativity and generosity amazed me...I'm so grateful to have such special friends. 
These cute green chalk boards were the centerpieces for every table with various sayings on each one.

The Hostesses...

My friend Jamie, made this "picture window" for me.  She put one of our engagement pictures in each space....adorable!

A surprise appearance from Ben!! 

"Thunder" helmets...

I don't know about everyone else but I thought the past week-end was very interesting weather-wise in the Mid-West....April showers, funnel clouds, tornadoes, thunder and lightning.....My mom got Ben and I bicycle helmets (thunder helmets) for our Easter gift, so we were prepared for the weather....

...BRING IT ON...

Fortunately, we didn't have to actually use them.....this was just a practice run...lol !  I can do without funnel clouds and tornadoes but give me a good thunder and lightning storm.....I LOVE thunderstorms !

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy birthday to the best mom and friend a girl could have!  We LOVE you and are looking forward to a fun night of celebrating....

Weekend Happenings

I LOVE weekends....!!!!!  My mom and  I started the day off shopping and to our surprise...we found a "mother of the bride" dress.  It is so chic and looks absolutely stunning on her.  I can't wait until she walks down the aisle before me in 4 months !!!!

After that, my mom helped me complete our registry at Dillard's.
On a rainy night over my spring break, Ben and I registered at Bed Bath and Beyond.  It was perfect... we were one of the only customers in the store.  Every time we passed an employee, they congratulated us ..(so sweet). Our registry wouldn't be complete without my past place of employment, Pottery Barn.  Now, we are all set for my first shower on April 19th with my school friends.

Saturday evening we attended Daisi and Sam's first shower.  It was hosted by their friends at Dolce Salon.  We had a lot of fun socializing, eating, and ending the night with an impromptu dance party.  

Here are just a few pictures from their shower....
