A Wedding Shower and The Little Red Door

It's been a very long, but fun day today.  Today we helped Jen and Justen host a wedding shower for our friends Bryce and Sarah.  

They are getting married in just a few weeks and we are really looking forward to their wedding.  Jen was sweet enough to offer to have the shower at her house since I just had Harper's big birthday party at our house last weekend.  Thank you Jen!!!

We played the toilet paper wedding dress game.  The bride and groom each had to pick several people to be on their team.  Those team members then helped "dress" them as a bride using toilet paper.  It was safe to say that the girls one this one hands-down. 

I brought the pack-n-play hoping that Harper would nap during part of the shower, but she was not about to miss out on the fun.  Because all of our best friends were at the shower (and because when we get together we all just have so much fun we don't want it to end) the party ran right up until dinner time.  Harper was a trooper though and with no afternoon nap she was still going strong.  After a quick clean-up Robby headed to the lake for the night to get our boat ready for the season (we CAN'T wait to head up in a few weeks) and I headed for the Chick-fil-a Dwarf House for dinner with the girls.  We'd been here once before with Jen and Handley remembered the "little red door" that she got to walk in.  She hoped that Harper and I could squeeze through it too and so we all got to experience the thrill of walking in and out of the Dwarf House through the "little red door." That was picture-worthy.   

As we were loading up to head home, way past bath and bed time at our house, I turned around to see Handley wearing her Daddy's hat.  That crazy girl just loves her some hats these days.  This morning when she went to Wal-mart with her Daddy she insisted on wearing a toboggan again.  :-)

P.S.- I decided it wasn't worth going to the lake with Robby since it was going to be a quick trip for him up and back and since he was going to be busy working on the boat most of the time.  Plus, it was going to give me a night at home alone after the girls were asleep to try to catch up on some some things - like 3+ hours of sewing for a big project I'm doing for a neighbor!)
