bridal shower gifts

Last weekend we attend a couple's shower for my friends Jon & Joyce, whose wedding Owen will be standing up in as a minature groom/ring bearer. Joyce is still trying to decide if she wants a 2 year old running around with the precious wedding rings.

The set up with nice and not too many shower games. Owen had a blast even though the party didn't start til 8pm. I think he ate his way through the entire party. He got to meet the little girl who he will be walking down the aisle with - Audrey. First impression he left on her is reaching over to her plate and eating off of it - she kept giving him dirty looks for wanting to eat the M&M's off her plate.

Not attending a bridal shower in over 2 yrs, I forgot how everyone usually receives 'that special gift' amongst all the other gifts off the registry. Jon & Joyce were no different. It came from Jon's grandma - Jon's dad made sure they opened that last because at he put it - it would take a while. It was 2 big boxes that within it were an assortment of stuff - christmas ornaments, halloween napkins (paper), other seasonal decor, etc. - that were all individually wrapped in tissue paper.
