April Showers: Meredith’s Purple Wedding Shower

Saturday was Meredith’s wedding shower! It was at an old courthouse that apparently was right next to their apartment. It was in their common room which was weird because I kept forgetting it wasn’t someone’s house. It basically looked like a model apartment staged to be all neutral and appealing. It was a pretty nice place.

We ate sandwiches and salads and then played a Price is Right game where we had to guess the prices of a few household items. I totally lost because apparently Brita filters cost $20. I think I guessed $5. Some of us are perfectly content drinking water straight from the tap. 🙂

Then Meredith opened all her gifts while we played a game where we guessed what gifts she would get.

I think Joe has the most talented grandparents ever. Not only does his grandmother bake amazingly well but she knit her a gorgeous afghan and his grandfather made her a glass angel! My mom made herself a quilt and somehow managed to have twelve squares on one side and ten on the other…

After presents we had cupcakes and cookies and chocolate fountain goodness. Yum!
