Darn Blog

I am so frustrated with this blog! It's like you can only post 3 pics at a time (and only if they are the small ones). So, I am going to just keep posting until all the pics that I want are up.

Showers, Trips & Family!!

John and I are definitely being spoiled by seeing our extended family this many weekends in a row! Between my bridal shower, our PA weekend in DE (I'll post pics later, I had my "manual camera"!), and my soon to be cousin Jen's bridal shower this past weekend - I can't tell you how much fun we have when we are all together!



Oh, and by the way, Jen's soon-to-be husband Dave (my cousin) is having his bachelor party up in the Poconos this weekend, so I will again get to spend time with them! The girls are going out, and with my cousin Missy in from Chicago it should be a great night!




Anyways, back to Jen's shower, she had a beautiful day and her and Dave were also blessed with family and friends and gifts, lots and lots of gifts! It's funny, because I remember her saying at one point, about her new plate set "I have been using the same plate set from when I first moved out", as I was thinking in my head -I am still using hand me down plates that were from my sister-in-law Annie's house growing up!! It's great to be able to start your marriage with all of these beautiful things to enjoy with one another!


The night ended up at my Aunt Brenda & Uncle Dave's house (cousin Dave's parents). Most of the families came over and Dave and his brother Mike put on a spectacular fireworks show! The kids absolutely loved it!!


Congratulations again Dave & Jen!! Can't wait to see you guys this weekend!!

Aloha

I cannot even begin to let everyone know how grateful John and I are for the beautiful shower that was put on for us. Much mahalo (thanks) to my mom, Pat, Erin, Annie and Danielle for making it all come together so nicely!



It was a wonderful day, although it could've been a few degrees cooler (I think it hit 98 degrees), but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.




My shower was actually a luau complete with a tiki bar, pig roast, coconuts and leis. It is always great to be together with your ohana (family). These are just a few Hawaiian words John picked up from Lilo & Stitch, one of our favorite movies! Here are some pictures of the day for you all to enjoy.
