a bridal shower {the first}

it's starting! it's starting! all sister's wedding-y fun!


leslee's very first bridal shower was a few weeks ago. it was a pretty brunchy shower at our sister-in-law berit's house. and it was quite the success!



muffins and fresh fruit and egg casseroles and cupcakes. oh my.


i mean, how cute are those monogrammed cupcakes?! surrounded by lil brownie bites that berit decorated herself. we love anything monogrammed. these were an especially sweet treat!


also loved the mimosas with dainty little strawberries. (nicely done cousin kenz!)


we played a funny little candy match game that i whipped up.
the saying - "post-wedding bank account"
the matching candy bar - "zero"
the winner - keith's mom
who upon receiving her zero candy bar responded, "no kidding..." and with a glance over at my mom "...should i give you half?"

bahahaha!

and of course there were presents! so many new kitchen things!


place settings, platters, mugs, white wine glasses, red wine glasses, cutting boards, knives, pitchers, mixers (one small, one large!), napkins, coasters, dish towels...whewwww this girl is going to be set in the kitchen!

wait, are we sure she knows what to do in a kitchen? kiiiidding les! kind of.


les and her hostesses + hostess helpers
mrs. ruth, sis-in-law berit, les, cousin mackenzie, and aunt cyndi
they're the best. (we missed you ash!!)



love!


with keith's sweet sister kami and future mother-in-law (!) kim.


pretty bridesmaids. sarah and kristen. all the way from new braunfels and austin for a weekend-of-fun!


pretty high school friends. audrey, tyler, les, nicki and brittany.
i've known these girls forever. they're so grown up! when did that happen?


the bride-to-be gets 2 rings! one has lots of sparkle, one just tastes yummy...and might be a lil bit sticky. :)


happy first bridal shower pretty sister! let the wedding festivities begin!
