Megan and Jared's Wedding Shower

The day we had been planning for the last 3 months finally arrived!! Megan and Jared's wedding shower!! It ended up a ton of fun. Most of Megan and Jared's close friends are in the Oklahoma City area now, so we had the shower at a bowling lounge there called Red Pin Bowling Lounge. It was right on the water in Bricktown and it had a very trendy feel to it. It had lots of yummy food you could order and we even had our own lounge to visit with everyone if you didn't want to bowl. We drove our new MINIVAN (yes you heard me right, minivan) to Oklahoma City and it was so nice to have all that room. Jason and his girlfriend Jessica and Nj and Mel rode with us and we had a ton of room. Scott got to practice his "Dad Skills" in the minivan and practiced yelling at us when we asked him to change the DVD's in the car :) It really is a nice car and it is going to perfect for our growing family. I never thought I'd drive a minivan or actually be EXCITED about driving one, but the dorrs open by themselves, the kids can buckle themselves in the car and there is a ton of room. Thanks to Jeff and Abby for upgrading their car and selling us their van!!!

Anyway, back to the shower. I made the cake for the shower and it turned out super cute if I may say so myself. I don't have pics because I am stupid and forgot to bring my camera, so I'll get some from Megan. Everyone devoured the cake and kept telling me how delicious it was, so that made me feel good. I filled it with homemade Bavarian Cream and topped it with cream cheese frosting. I'll post pics. We went to dinner first at a mexican restaurant and with 17 of Megan and Jared's closest friends and then went to the bowling lounge where there was about 30 people or so. One of my closest friends from college and roommate from college Amber, her husband Gideon and their new baby Grace were able to come and it was so fun to catch up with her!! Scott had too good of a time that night, but as he said he usually has to watch me, since I was pregnant he didn't have to worry and could just have fun :) Love that guy!! He did have good time, I'll tell you that. We shared a room at the hotel with Jess and Jason and of course had to order room service!! Fun trip and so excited for Megan and Jared! They are going to have such a wonderful marriage and I can't wait to see them grow as a couple and enjoy their lives together! Lauren Conner, Leah and Megs

Megan, Jess, Amber, Me and baby Grace and Lauren. I didn't bowl- didn't seem like the best idea at 32 1/2 weeks pregnant with 30 other partying people :)

Nj and Megan- couldn't figure out how to turn this pic




Carley sisters, Steph came earlier in the day with my parents but left before the shower- we missed her at the party :(

Now it's time to plan the Bachelorette Party before this baby gets here...the party will be AFTER the baby comes but I need to get planning, hopefully not too much longer until we meet this baby!!
