I had my first shower. Yes, I said first, because there will be more to come. Unfortunately with divorced parents, actually it feels more like divorced families, you always have more then one holiday celebration. I have had to go to two holiday celebrations(Chanukah,Passover,Thanksgiving, etc.) for over seven years. Why should a bridal shower be any different, I guess it's more for my sanity...I could not imagine even at my own wedding how my families will act when they see each other. I know weddings are different, but there will be tension. I'm glad they are postponing that till it gets closer to our wedding.
This shower was held by my father's side. My grandmother, cousin/bridesmaid Janna, and Janna's mother Olia who hosted the shower. I loved it, just look at the hard work they did in just the decorating.
My aunts and cousins from my father's side were all there. Also Nick's mother and one of his sisters were there to celebrate. I was really wonderful to have all of women on my father's side in one room. Not only were the decorations great, but also the food and games.
Here Janna is announcing what the next shower game we will play.
Here I am, just finding out it's a quiz for me from Nick.
We had such a great time. It was so nice to share this experience with the women in my family and Nick's family too.
Oh and I almost for got this picture. My cousin Janna would not be happy with this post it I did not show you this:
