Another Bridal Shower

One of our family friends, Nancy, threw Allie the cutest Kitchen Shower ever. I was so impressed at all the little detail. We have some great family friends and it's fun to see them come and support my baby sister. Thanks to everyone for coming! Allie is so lucky to have so many wonderful people who care about her and our family. Hope to see you at the reception! Here are some pictures from the fun evening.



Allie and Nancy. Thanks for such a wonderful party. She truly is the best!



This "towel cake" was the adorable centerpiece.



Each guest was invited to bring a recipe to share. I made my "Garden Pasta Salad." It turned out delicious. It's just a Suddenly Salad Pasta mix, add a tablespoon of mayonnaise to the dressing that you make and then add your favorite vegetables. I also added cashews and grapes last night.


These were the adorable party favors.


Some of her wonderful gifts included:


Her own "herb garden" from the Halls. So cute.

An adorable apron from Heather.

Dishtowels from Ashley and Ariel.



Here the guests enjoyed Allie's gifts.

My mom and me.


Aaron stopped by to bring her some stuff that they needed.


Allie and Kelly always pose in the goofiest ways. There was so much yummy food for us to enjoy.


Tami, Kerri, and Allie. Kerri made these cute teal paper flowers. They seriously were the cutest thing I've ever seen. And these three girls color coordinated for the event.


Me and the bride.


The girls of the family: mom, Audrey, me and Allie


Aud and me. (This is a Staple Askins pose.)




Allie with the best Maid of Honor ever- Kelly.


So after the party had ended and we had loaded up the majority of presents, we had a downpour in Gilbert! We got SOAKED. Here are the beautiful girls. Since Al and Aud are in white you can't really tell- but notice my sopping gray dress. haha.

Sorry I couldn't put more pictures. If you were at the shower and would like one, let me know. My blog wasn't big enough to hold all 180 pictures that I took of the event! :)
