Cicily and I had a blast planning Erika's Bridal Shower. Not being very experienced in the bridal shower throwing business, we were a little apprehensive. The party was at Cicily's beautiful home, the perfect place for a celebration. Going with the springy yellow and pink (Erika's Favorite color) picnic theme. We ate the classic chicken croissant sandwiches with strawberry salad and fruit out of white lunch pails. Friends and family came to celebrate Erika's upcoming wedding. We had a good laugh looking at the colored napkins Wendy had taped together to use as tissue paper, then laughed harder when we realized Grandma had wrapped her gifts in wall paper, I guess paper problems run in the family. As tradition goes Erika's last gift was from mom. Every year since we were born mom has bought us a Christmas ornament. When we get married we inherit our ornaments. Although it's no longer a surprise, it is always a sort of bitter sweet gift knowing that we are moving on. We had a great time. Thanks to all who came and helped out. We love you!
each summer we are taken so far away from our families and friends so this is our multimedia outreach to stay in touch. we really do love you all and promise to stay home one of these summers.
