Citrus Themed Bridal Shower

Keeping it real here. It is 3:45 in the morning and I am typing this in the hallway while my girly is in the bathtub after a 3 am wake-up (eww, throw up) call. I really think a good bath can fix a lot of things. She is playing and already feeling better but I won't get back to sleep until she has been ick free for a whole day. 
So might as well make the most of it!

I hosted a bridal shower for my soon to be Sister in Law yesterday. She wasn't sure she wanted one, and I didn't have a lot of time to plan once a date had been set for it.  I wanted the theme to be a surprise for her because I KNOW she has a ton of wedding stuff she is working on and if she knew the theme she would be spending some of her time pinning cute stuff for me to look at!

This was my first party not at our house, and it was a 40 minute drive, so all those little things I forgot were not really an option to go home and get. (like flowers!) I know for next time to USE the lists I made!











So there it is, super simple and I didn't take pictures of the games but also simple, the bridal shower poem game, and the points for what is in your purse game.

I don't have any other parties to plan until FEBRUARY!!! We are taking our kiddos to Great Wolf Lodge for Finn's 3rd Birthday in September instead of the traditional party, this all started because I couldn't think of a theme in February for him and I like plenty of time to plan! They don't know but I am sure Ramsey will be suspicious when there is no party prep going on in August or September!

    1. I used a cricut cartridge to make the little wedges! I think it is on all about cards? Maybe? But honestly if I had t do it again I would just do circles and puffy paint the white part or glitter and glue:) Then just a hole punch.
