Our Progressive Wedding Shower

Sean and I are both determined to document important events in our lives so that when we are 80 and sitting on our front porch in our rocking chairs we will have something to reminisce about. I have intentions of eventually turning this blog into a book so we can flip through it down the road.

Anywhoodless one of the events I'd like to document is a lovely wedding shower put on by the Young Married Sunday School class at Wayside. Leading up to our wedding there were 3 different engaged couples in our class and one couple that was expecting their first baby (busy times!). The class was so kind as to put on a "progressive" shower for all of us. There were four different locations and at each location one of the couples was honored along with a course of our dinner. Hmm when I put it that way it sounds kind of complicated but for example our personal wedding shower took place over the Soup & Salad course at the Forrero's house. All of the members of our class blessed us with wonderful gifts. Michelle even took pictures of each shower and got us the pictures which is allowing this post to be possible because Lord knows Sean and I are picture taking failures...
It was a frigid South Florida February night! 
The cutest guest at our shower...Miss Ainsley :)
(What celebration would be complete without a baby?)
Another one of the then engaged couples - Febe and Jorge
The lovely Leigh and Kelly

Deep conversation and delicious salad.

 Excited to start the present opening

What a wonderful evening with wonderful kind people. All of the other couples' showers were just as fun and the food was delicious. THANK YOU SUNDAY SCHOOL CLASS. You are all so great!
