So Alyse and I have known eachother since we were 2, and she got engaged to Mike Andes on July 13th. I was so happy for her! And of course, we immediately started planning for her big day.
We talked reception, flowers, colors.... but of course the most important part is THE DRESS!We went with her mom and 2 sisters, Brynne and Caylee, to help her decide which one she liked best.
And then of course we had to have a bridal shower! I was able to help host it at my mom's house and of course we had to think of lots of good FOOD to eat!
Lauren helped me make a lot of the food and also helped set up- thank you thank you! We made most of the food the day before. Our boys had fun playing together while we cooked, and when we had a little chocolate left over at the end, they were more than happy to help us take care of that!
The menu: chipotle raspberry cream cheese dip with crackers, texas caviar, spinach artichoke dip, meatballs, pasta salad (thnx grandma Faas!), fruit, cream puffs, brownie bites, oreo truffls, and pretzolos. I think I went a little overboard, but it was soooo yummy!
