Kristina's Bridal Shower...

As you may or may not know, my younger sister is getting married next month and I am her matron of honor. And because of this privilege she bestowed upon me, it was my job to throw her the bridal shower of her dreams
. Thanks to the financial backing of our mother and her future mother-in-law I was able to pull off a not too shabby shindig, which we threw in the party room of a restaurant here on Long Island for her and her guests to enjoy.

As you can kinda tell, it was your typical wine themed bridal shower with food, drinks, games, silly hats, etc. Plus a beautiful "I Love Lucy" (1951-1957) themed cake that I bought as a present for my Lucille Ball loving sister (FYI - She started to cry when she saw it, I'm really good at making her cry in both good and bad ways).

I don't know what the guests would say but I think I threw one nice ass bridal shower for my sister. And I know that at least she agrees because she called me when she got home and was on the phone with me for almost twenty minutes telling me how much she loved it. Which made me so happy because I put a lot of thought and effort into it for her.
