We are so excited to Celebrate the union of Mike and Amanda!!!! We are excited to meet Mike's family. I will be sending out an evite to the actual bridal shower with all the information in a few days. Here is the list of people invited and next to your name is what we would like you to bring to the shower. We have decided to do COUPLE'S FIRST. It is a fun theme and you can be really creative and it can be inexpensive. We will give you some ideas as to what to get if you are stuck.
Scroll down until you find your name and review your gift item. There are some families that are all living in the same house hold, you can all do the same theme and contribute to that gift. Some are doubled up and that is okay, people will get different things.
You can put your items in cute baskets (Micheals has cute ones), or bags, or wrap them up.

We had a bridal shower for Amanda and Mike on Monday. We than enjoyed a spaghetti dinner with Mike's family. The guys babysat the kids downstairs while the girls enjoyed a shower. Everything seemed so rushed but it was still fun. We didn't even let the nasty weather keep us from having fun. Mike's family even kept to the schedule even after being lost in the blizzard.
