It's a Good Thing I Adore the Bride

This morning I attended a bridal shower for my friend, Betsy, who's getting married next month (there's a link to her blog on here, by the way). Now, bridal showers in general are not really my favorite thing in the world (being the divorced, barren, 100-year-old spinster that I am) and bridal showers that start at 10 a.m. on a Saturday morning (oh, the inhumanity!!!) are even worse, but I'm a big fan of Betsy so I sucked it up and went. I'm glad I did. It was nice to see some old friends from the ward and it was just generally a nice shower (no annoying games, just food and gifts - perfect!). Everyone seemed friendly and happy to be there, so it was an enjoyable day. I think the plaque thing I made her turned out pretty cute. It's the first time I made one, so we'll see.

As a side note, I met Betsy when we served on the Activities Committee together. She once hosted a brunch at her house and I was amazed at the beauty and feel of her place. It was like a grown-up apartment! As we all know, mine is decidedly NOT a grown-up apartment, as my seven-year-old niece would probably mistake my apartment for her room (although, it should be noted I don't have any High School Musical posters on my walls like she does). I'm so excited for Betsy and her new adventure in life - congratulations, my friend!!!
