"Honey-Do" Couples Shower!

Saturday night, my sister and her husband (who introduced me and Scott), along with my mom and step-dad, were so sweet to host a couple's shower in my and Scott's honor! We had so much fun hanging out with so many close friends and family! The food and cakes were AWESOME (catered by Homeplate Cooking), my Mom's cheesecakes were an absolute hit, the koozies were super cute, the decorations were perfect and the fellowship was wonderful! Scott and I felt so honored at so many people's sweet gestures and well wishes as we embark on our lives together!

My sister sent out invitations that gave each guest a different "Honey-Do" request, such as:
Honey, let's...
 take a nap,
have a dinner party,
have game night,
do yard work,
do laundry,
clean house,
have a picnic.

We got so many wonderful gifts! Picnic baskets, wine, wine goblets, a blanket, laundry supplies, cleaning supplies, sheets, towels, home improvement store gift cards, serving ware, and so much more! And, my mom, step-dad, sister, and bro-in-law thought it would be good to take "Game Night" to the next level.....our family is now the proud owner of a Nintendo Wii! It's so funny because I've never had any gaming system since the original NES, so this will be a new one for us! My sister's family has one and they love it, so we can't wait to start family tournaments!


Thank you all for making that night so special for us!!



Bachelorette Party - Nash-Vegas Style!!

A group of some of the great girls in my Bunco group took me to Nashville to celebrate my upcoming nuptials! We stayed in the heart of Nashville and were able to walk to eat at The Big River Grill and go over and take in some line-dancing and Country-music at The Wildhorse Saloon. After a while, we left there and headed over to the dueling piano bar, The Big Bang Bar. It was SUCH a blast! Nashville is such a fun town and to be with such a great group made my Bachelorette a wonderful memory for the books!

I hope we can make this an annual trip!!



Lindsey's Work Wedding Shower

On August 19th, my accounting firm, along with my co-workers, were so gracious to throw me and Scott a wedding shower! We received so many wonderful gifts: Foam mattress cover, 4-piece set of luggage, set of sheets, a few pans, a set of Henckels knives, Calphalon serving-ware, New Orleans Saints Tumbler, oven mitts and kitchen towels, and a gift card to Bed Bath & Beyond!! I have so many generous and thoughtful co-workers who made the shower so special for us!
