The thursday before the big day, my Grandma (G-mizzle, G-miz) and my Aunt Carol flew in from Maryland! I was so glad that they came and enjoyed picking them up from the airport.
Also on that thursday, my best friends threw me a bridal shower (thanks girls!). It was really fun! They made all kinds of rice-krispie treats (my FAVORITE dessert/snack/meal!)
We played some fun games like making toilet paper wedding dress designs....
And a game to see how well Andrew and I knew one another...
Needless to say, with a few wrong answers we still love each
other!
I was really glad that my family (Mom, G-Miz, Aunt Carol, Grandmom Butcher, Mom Wight) could be there--it made it very special and very fun!
The theme of the bridal shower was recipes (something we were in desperate need of). We got a lot of good recipes and ingredients that go in them. Hopefully they will serve to give our bellies lots of variety (something that we have been looking for)!
It was a really fun time and I want to give a special shout out/thank you to my friends who put this all together!!!
Thanks to Alisha and Krystle!
Thanks to Fel (also the photographer for the night!!)
Thanks to Rachel for being the master-mind (and the most fun picture person!)
Don't I have the best friends ever?
The Friday before the wedding my Dad and I went up to the airport to pick up Hayley and Jeremy in the morning and then we ran around doing some last-minute errands. We finished the day off by having a pizza party with friends/family while finishing up the decorations for the wedding...we had about a billion of these to "fluff" in a variety of colors (many thanks to Raedean who spearheaded this endeavor)...
After the pizza party, Andrew and I made a trip to the SLC airport to pick up Andrew's sister, Jenny, and his super cute niece! I mean, how could you not be excited to pick these two up?
We got in late, around 12:30 a.m. got a bit of sleep (I stayed with my parents and Andrew at our place) and woke up to our wedding day!
