Bridal Shower

Over the Thanksgiving break, we also held a bridal shower for Tom's little sister Jill (who got married back in December).

We had a brunch - egg frittata, fruit salad, scones, breads, and caramel apples

We only played two "games" at the shower.  One where everyone gave Jill various kinds of a advice for being married.  The other was asking Jill questions that had been previously asked of her (then) fiancee, Aaron.  Jill had to answer the question first (and answer how she thought Aaron would), and then we watched Aaron's video recorded answer.  If Jill got an answer wrong, she got a helium balloon tied in her hair.

Checking out her balloons :)

I'm pretty sure this was while we were watching the end of the video where we'd asked Aaron to say why he loved Jill.

All of the balloons!

She kept the balloons in her hair while opening up her presents :)

Ann and her sweet little Kinley.  Kinley was the only child that stayed for the shower.  All of the men took the other three kids out to play (which it ended up being playing at Toys R Us).  All of the kids had a blast playing with the balloons when they came home after the shower was over.
