The showerlette (part shower, part bachelorette) on Saturday was great. Very low-key and laid back, which is pretty much what I was hoping for.
Jen made some fantastic food (fresh gaspacho, a simple salad with vinagrette, 2 kinds of stuffed mushrooms) as well as a cheese + cracker plate and dips with dippers; and mimosas (aaand, pretty much whatever I wanted to drink).
She also decorated (she made the door deco in my last post), and Karen went all-out (as expected/suspected) and had simple framed photos of EJ + myself throughout the house.
We played a few games (the word search became amazingly competitive!) And spent a lot of time socializing.
fMIL made a gorgeously simple cake (carrot cake, one of my faves); Karen + Jen put together a great "well wishes" type of book from all the attendees; and later on Sam and Wolfe spent some time with us before they all left.
At the end (we were all kinda tired), the 3 of us womenfolk watched "Never Been Kissed" (Jen hadn't seen it, and its one of a very short list of romantic comedies I enjoy).
Like I said, very laid back and relaxing sort of day. Just what I wanted!
