More Bridal Shower Pics












It's about that time....again


So last weekend Andrew and I decided to go look at apartments. Our lease is up May 26th, so we originally planned on extending our lease for one month and moving after the wedding. But when we went looking on Sunday, we ended up finding exactly what we wanted. The only catch was, we have to move by May 10th...as in two weeks from now! So we decided to go for it and now we are moving May 9th & 10th. We found an awesome aparment in Irvine (about 5 minutes from our apartment now). It's 2 bedroom, 2 bath, an upstairs corner unit with no one above us. There is a fireplace, vaulted cielings, and granite countertops in the kitchen...and best of all, it's PET FRIENDLY! Woo hoo! We even have a little yard area right behind us for the future puppy to run around. We are super excited about moving, but we know its also going to be super stressful. I am going to be in Vegas for my bachelorette party the week before the move and Andrew is going to be in Havasu the week after the move. So needless to say, we are going to be living out of boxes for the next month until we get back from our honeymoon and have time to decorate and unpack! I can't wait to open all our cool gifts and get settled into our first home as a married couple! If anyone feels like moving some boxes or helping me organize, give me a call! I could use the company.

My Bridal Shower













This past Saturday I had my bridal shower at my parent's house. The weather couldn't have been more perfect! I had been looking forward to my shower for quite some time...I couldn't wait to see what my mom and Erin had come up with. When I got there, I was more than impressed...everything was black and pink! Some of the little details included: pink and black balloons, pink and black M&M favors, damask plates & napkins, little "k&a" square cut outs all over the tables, and hot pink votives! The food was also amazing! My mom even made my favorite...chocolate covered strawberries! It was so fun to see all my friends and family together in one place. They did a great job making me feel so special and showering me with love and tons of great gifts! I'm sad its over already, but excited because it means I'm that much closer to the big day! Thanks again to everyone who was able to make it. A special thanks to Jana for making the awesome invitations, my mom for opening up her house to everyone and decorating/preparing all the food, and of course to my maid of honor Erin, for organizing the whole thing and making it all come together! It was perfect! I love you girls. Now time for some pictures...
