Bridal Party

Dina called me some time back, “I know you can’t have the traditional bridal shower, but when you go to Australia, you’re going to need things, and we can buy you pretty lingerie, make up,  a wedding dress….What do you think Barb?”

I nearly cried I was so touched at the gesture.

And so, Dina and Chris made for me a  Bridal party.

Dear friends, Chris and Dina

Bride to be...

Jimmy got a picture of us all.

An amazing cake.

Loved the plates!

Good food!

Dina and I as I get settled to open presents.

Friends having a laugh.

Heather got me a new address book.

A basket of goodies to help me relax.

A present for me and my husband to be, a sign maker, a SIGN that says "Do not disturb, we're on our honeymoon!"

A book for the plane ride, "One Thing You Can't Do in Heaven"

My dress!

Laura gathers photo evidence that I broke my diet today. CAKE! So caught in the act!

It was good fun and I missed those that could not be there, but  ever grateful for those who came. Dina and Chris, I will never be able to express in words, just what it meant to me to honor me with this little party. I wish I could take you all to Australia with me….
