There Shall Be Showers of Blessing

Two weeks ago, the ladies at Nathan's church blessed me with the first of many bridal showers during this beautiful season of marriage preparation! I am so grateful for the hard work they put into the event and the abundant generosity of the women who attended.

Beautiful flowers from the garden of one of the hostesses.

The beginnings of a mountain of gifts!

Mingling...

Look who I found at the party!

My darling fiancé decided to come up to the church and work in his office while the shower was taking place. He also made several appearances throughout the event...much to my delight!

Talking to guests...

Time to open presents!

So many ladies blessed us with items for our new home together or money toward the purchase of furniture!

I love the facial expressions going on here!

Sweet friends.

Hand-embroidered pillow cases!

More delightful facial expressions. :)

Visiting.

Catching up with old friends too!

So very thankful for the shower of blessings!
