Petra's Bridal Shower!!!
It has been awhile since we last posted! Which is because we've been so busy (doing fun and not so fun things). This past weekend falls into the fun category for me (Kate) but not for Blaine (b/c Blaine was sick with stomach flu). I have been planning for over a month now to have Petra's (my best friend here who's from Germany) bridal shower at our house. This Saturday was the day and it turned out great! I had fun making my fruit tray and arranging flowers (how Betty Crocker/Martha Stewart am I!). I will have to slip in a comment that everyone thought that the flowers were professionaly done! Everyone else brought a dish of food so no one had to do it all! We fit around 25 people into our 'not so big house' but everyone seemed to have a lot of fun! Afterwards I arranged for a limo to come pick us up and take us to town for a night of dancing in honor of Petra's bacholorette night! We went to this 70s disco club where the floor puts on a light show. Even more fun!
Petra had never been to a bridal shower or been in a limo, so it was a night of firsts! She got some beautiful gifts and well-wishes! Success! So can I officially say now that I am a grown-up b/c I have thrown my first party without my mom's help?
