On June 5th, I threw a bridal shower for Jen at Brendan's parents' neighborhood's clubhouse. The location was beautiful and I can't thank Mrs. Schamble enough for organizing and booking it. It's always a fabulous experience to have people from all facets of your life gathered in one place to celebrate you and no one is more deserving of that than the beautiful bride-to-be.
All the attendees were treated to a wonderful food spread courtesy of my dear Mama, the HEB and Mrs. Schamble, the delicious sangria stylings of Jen's BM Chelsea and perfect iced tea and lemonade from Jen's BM Rashell. They also got to participate in some exciting shower-type games where we learned that Brendan's favorite ninja turtle was Michaelangelo, Jen loves to Catch a Predator, they will have a lab waaaaay before a bambino and Brendan's favorite Houston athlete is Arian Foster thanks to a clutch fantasy win.
Another exciting treat that I don't think anyone will soon forget was Anthony V's graduation party. There is no point in re-living this story but just know that if you find yourself in a double-booking situation, you should under no circumstances set your 20 cases of beer down in the entry to a bridal shower. Nor should you remove their food from the fridge. That type of behavior gets you locked out. So I hear.
While at the time, this story was mortifying, I think in the end it makes Jen's shower all the more memorable. Congratulations to my dear BFF- you will make one absolutely stunning bride.

Jen promised she'd make me some delicious meals with this pan. Also, this is where our picture-taking journey ends because I was diligently playing scribe.
