Brooke's Bridal Shower

Hello, all - - Well, the shower was a success, except for that BAD HOT HOT HOT weather we have been having. Normally our backporch (with ceiling fans going) is cool enough, but NO WAY. We moved the shower inside and my air was having trouble keeping up. Inspite of the weather that we could not control, the shower went very well. We had about 25-30 people in attendance. We did a Hawaiian Theme and Crystal & Michelle did an excellent job of decorating. The food was all Hawaiian also. Crystal even bought a Hawaiian CD which was playing in the background - - only trouble was that it was so hot we KNEW we weren't in Hawaii! The shower would have been perfect otherwise. . .and under normal conditions - - I probably would have thought I was in Hawaii. Anyway - check out the pictures below. We had a great time.

Sorry Matt - somehow I posted this TWO TIMES - - but guess you were a little bored with us all going through the shower gifts. . . but, a Mom's advise would be never to fall asleep!!!

Brooke trying on some of her panties from the panty basket.
Michelle trying too

Ozzie would have loved to be with Matt in that bedroom sleeping, but couldn't stand all the action!

Matt still sleeping
Another angle - - we're cruel, aren't we?

Geez - think I did this one twice too, and haven't figured out how to delete????

The "Girls" - -from Jr. High to how - - bestest of friends to the end
While the girls did the shower thing - - Steve, and Tom and Matt (with a bunch of other guys) golfed. Weather was extremely hot - - we had to move the shower inside! - - Can't imagine golfing. Anyway - here's the heat-stroke result of two of the golfers. I'm happy to say they lived and were better in about an hour.
