Bras and Panties and Lace… Oh MY

Spread the love

(Yup I did say that title 🙂 read on!)

This last weekend and even up to today I realized how truly blessed I am and what a great Fiance, Family & Friends that I have. I was kind of trying to hold off on this post because I don’t have any of the pictures from Friday night but you might be dying to know the secret just as I was so I guess I’ll go ahead and tell you.

All I knew going up to this was that I needed a white dress, there was a camera involved, was told PC was to wear black dress pants, white shirt & tie, and I couldn’t get ready at my house, I had to get ready at my parents house and then we’d go to meet up with Evelyn at my house for what I was told was pictures. She had ideas. haha.

What little bits and pieces got slipped out, which wasn’t much, I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what was going on and it was about to drive me nuts, but I tried to keep my cool and not let them know I knew anything because really, I was confused!

So after work we headed to my parents house so I could get ready. PC left all his clothes at our house. We were supposed to be to our house at 7:10. I hurried up and got myself ready so that we could get to our house and he could change. It was hot in my room and especially the bathroom so I moved the floor fan over in front of the door while I was getting ready. Now I was quite the site too because I should fess up I was walking around in my wedding shoes trying to help break them in as well. So I got dressed and was moving the fan back to the bedroom when the base slipped off the fan and slid down my leg and did this number.

And this is Tuesday after Friday. It’s healed a lot! Boy did that sucker bleed! and sting!

So PC cleaned it off for me and put Neosporin on it and a band-aid. I changed shoes and we headed out the door. It was about 6:30 when we left. 12 miles, at most 20 minutes, we were doing good to get him to the house and get changed, but we were driving 40-45 miles an hour. Usually it’s more like 55. Back country roads. I asked him if he was feeling ok and he said yes why? Well because you’re driving slow. Okay. But you have a car behind you. Okay. He’s usually the one going, boy I wish this person would hurry up. ha!

So we missed the turn to go to our house… wait what? So of course I asked and he said we’ll get there. I figured we were going to his mom’s house but why were we driving so stinking slow! Once we got there he went inside and I painted my finger nails. They look good painted in pictures :). He took forever in his mom’s house. Finally he came out and we proceeded on to our house. So by now I figure something is up but I couldn’t quite place my finger on what was going on. And we took the long way to the house. The whole way I keep looking over and grinning at him and I was making him nervous. I finally settle in and start reading him a blog.

We turned down the road our house is on and I’m still reading. When he stopped to get the mail I looked up and there were tons of cars in my driveway. Seriously… did they just pull a fast one on me? YUP!

We go walking into the house and I was like, was I supposed to wear the white dress? I was freaking out that I was over dressed! Nope I wasn’t… but I was the only one wearing white. Everyone else was wearing black.

April and Evelyn (my wedding party) had thrown me an intimates bridal shower. Once PC had me in the door he got in his truck and left. I was in complete shock. I had a fabulous turnout too. There were 17 of my close dear friends present. I wish I had pictures to show/share but I don’t have them just yet.

April had driven up from Texas. They even hid her car in my garage so I wouldn’t recognize she was up. She drives a Bright Yellow Sunfire, it stands out! Evelyn had arranged to meet up with PC’s mom to get a house key to our house and had my house so girly and pretty. It was a Tiffany’s themed Bridal Shower. It was gorgeous! Tiffany’s blue, black, white and brown were the colors used. My house was gorgeous!

There was a chocolate fountain. To dip in the chocolate we had donuts, pretzels, bananas, strawberries, cookie dough, peanut butter balls, and lots more I can’t even remember. There were blue M&M’s and blue punch.

We played games. I think I’ll devote a specific post to the games but I’ll brush over them here. There was the Teddy in a box game. There was the house hold chore game. There was a list of things “I’ll say” on our first night as husband and wife. And there was the Panties game.

It was a fabulous shower thrown by 2 of my bestestestestestest friends! They are both great roll models. Evelyn has been married 11 1/2 years and April is at 4 1/2 years. Evelyn even had a co-worker come be the photographer so when I get pictures I’ll share :). I can’t wait to see them.

So there was my truly big, awesome surprise! (There’s more but I figure that’s another post :))

Peace, Love & Great Friends!
