Sunday in the South Including a Kitchen Shower

We have had such fun at the showers for our daughter and future son-in-law! It never ceases to amaze me at the generosity and goodness of people!

So last Sunday - not yesterday but a week ago - my sister and I drove to the town where my daughter lives and we attended worship with her. My future son-in-law plays in the orchestra so it was special to see him play that day. You can't really see him but he is a trumpet player!


After lunch, our daughter's future father-in-law treated us to lunch at a local BBQ restaurant. I was excited about the size of the diet coke (even though I'm a diet pepsi drinker) - the ball jar was huge!


My future son-in-law was excited that this country music star was also eating lunch at Country's BBQ restaurant.


This is Jamey Johnson . . .who sings . . .and who co-wrote Honky Tonk Badonkadonk. Wonder what he ordered?? I had BBQ chicken and it was quite tasty!!

My sister and I finally had a photo taken together. She does exist, y'all! I'm wearing the pink dress - just in case you wondered!


The shower was held in a really cute neighborhood very similar to the neighborhood where I live!


I love a beautiful silver service . . .and look at those lovely flowers. The home was lovely!


These are pimento cheese sandwiches . . .with olives chopped up in with the pimento cheese - yummy!!


They served the old fashioned punch that I remember from my childhood - green (lime) sherbet with gingerale poured over the top - oh so good!


Laura was showered with lovely gifts.




We both wore pink!! I had on really tall wedges (for me) and I'm still so much shorter!

Y'all - my baby girl is getting married this coming Saturday - I just can't believe it!!

  2. Exciting stuff! Your girl is just glowing!

    That home is lovely, indeed ... but I'm more a mason jar type myself (lol). Those trays your daughter was given are wonderful!

  3. Patti - thanks so much for the compliment on my dress!! I'm sure I'll be blogging about the wedding soon!!
    Myra - one is a tray and I think she put it on top of her china cabinet. I think the other one was a giant window picture frame. They were both lovely gifts!
