The view from here...

Makenna's bridal shower (Well, one of them anyway...)




She's as beautiful inside as she is outside



Maynard and Kevin weren't at the shower, but they enjoyed some of the refreshments out back in the sunshine before all the guests arrived. Then they went to the driving range.




Mom (Gma) by the refreshements




One of Makenna's favorites....Fruit Pizza! (Makenna, I'll make a whole one just for the 4 of us when you and Andrew come.)




Andrew's mom, Irene is telling an Andrew story.

Lori (Makenna's mom), Theresa, and Jan (cousin Greg's wife) coming to party.

Three generations....Gma Evelyn, Granddaughter Makenna, Mom Lori

Jan was a big help with gifts after being opened. This is a candid shot, right Jan? (Everyone knows one has to move in s-l-o-w motion for my camera.)

Julie and Alissa (Julie's growing...)

Irene telling a story. (Marti was our game organizer. This game: a dish of chocolate kisses was passed around and everyone was instructed to take as many as they wanted. Then for each kiss that you took you had to tell a something about Andrew and/or Makenna.)

Not sure what this was...but they're very expressive! (Alissa, in the green shirt...aka Jake...is Makenna's longtime friend...also her landlord, as she was quick to point out during introductions.)

Back of Marti, Joy (Makenna's almost sister-in-law), and Lori

Jan, Julie, Marti, Ginny (sorry if I got your name wrong), but she's also Makenna's future sister-in-law.

Enjoying the time...

I love this picture of Mom...she's enjoying watching the others as they say goodbye.

Lori: Irene, these gifts probably won't all fit in the car...which ones would you like? We can divvy up what doesn't fit...
