So, maybe a couple people remember me beeatching just last week on Littlelysser''s ANTI-BRIDE thread about kinda regretting my "no shower" stance.

Welllll ... my sweet sisters totally suprised me this weekend with a combo B-day party/bridal shower when we visited my hometown to see my two new nephews. Got back from a few hours of showing Decosbeau around Decoshometurf, and returned to find a house full o'' family & babies & food & decorations & Mmmm - CAKE .. plus a couple friends of my sisters that are also KINDA friends of mine ... one''s more like a little sister than a "friend" really. Just a little bit of girly stuff & present opening and then the whole thing morphed into a cookout with the guys & it was all pretty fun & un-showerish.

I totally have the best three sisters! Yea sisters! And one of them even offered to host a night-before-the-wedding "bachelorette dinner" I''d kinda just made reservations for myself ... so we''d have something to do after we decorated the barn. Like official invites & all - not to mention - paying for everyone!!! That''ll be so much nicer than I''d imagined.

Just a little happy update from the Reformed-Shower-Shunner.

p.s. -- the childhood best friend I was so upset couldn''t make it to the wedding (four hour crying jag, I won''t mention THAT thread name) ... her sister was there & brought me a small gift & message from "CBF" saying she was very sorry she couldn''t make the shower or wedding ... but that she''d be sending a "real gift and letter" later. I''m just happy to know she was thinking about it at all & didn''t just check the "not attending" box & forget about me

Did I miss any Leon/Asscher/Widget news over the long weekend??????
 
Yay! I''m so glad to hear that Deco!
 
Now, that's my kind of shower!

Glad to hear that you had a blast. What a nice surprise!
 

That does sound like my kind of shower! Glad you had such a lovely time.


Deco, it seems like you and I see some of this stuff the same way. But as we are only a month out, it''s starting to hit me...not in any big emotional kind of way, but sort of an "Oh...I''m getting married!" I''ve been protesting against any showers for so long, but I am starting to think a nice dinner with my girlfriends before the big day would be nice. I actually suggested making dinner for everyone at my place and got a resounding "no." Apparently I am not allowed to anything related to my own celebration...

deco,

This sounds wonderful! I''m so happy they did something so sweet for you...and the night before dinner that you get to anticipate too! Being an Anti-bride pays off in interesting ways sometimes! These things fall in line with your low-key attitude about the wedding.

So happy for you.
