Thoughts and Things - This week ... An April "Shower" for the Bride-to-be





This day was certainly one to remember, and will surely forever be a great memory.  Saturday was a beautiful day of celebration with a Bridal Shower for our daughter, and her Prince.  Her favorite princess is Belle, so that is how the theme idea came to be.  The theme was "Beauty and the Beast," and it was beautifully done!  The decorations, the food and everything was just so beautiful, all the details masterfully pulled together by her dear Friend and co-worker, along with her Sister and Mother.   They did such a wonderful job!  Thanks to the three of them, as well as our daughter's future Mother-in-law, and two future Sisters-in-law for all that was done in making this such a special day for our daughter.  Above is the table decor for each table.





This scene welcomed everyone after they entered, and it told the tale of the theme for the Bridal Shower.  Her favorite princess is Belle, so that is how the theme idea of "Beauty and the Beast" came to be, and I will say that her future husband is no beast!



A beautiful buffet of delicious foods and goodies ...



and, a display of delicious desserts, too!  The Hostess's Sister prepared most of the food, and those temptingly delicious desserts!  Red-velvet and Chocolate cupcakes, and also Salted Caramel cupcakes. Chocolate covered Strawberries, Cookies, Cherry Tartlets, and Banana pudding!  Yummy! ..It sure was!



The happy guest of honor has arrived!  She truly is a beauty!



A Beautiful "Bride to be!"  I'm so happy for my baby girl, and I excitedly look forward to the wedding day!





The biggest surprise was when her Fiancé showed up unexpectedly ...in full Prince costume!  He appeared before her and handed her a beautiful red rose just as she was about to unwrap one of her Shower gifts.  There were a few sweet tears among some of us in the room!  I for one, for sure!




I am so happy and excited for the future Mr and Mrs!


The big day is coming soon!...
