e whole wide world would be lavender. Several months ago we planted lavender in our garden. Monday it flowered for the first time, and without a doubt the best smell ever! We will forever love the smell of lavender since our trips to the Grove Park Inn and Spa. We have missed that this year. We put it on hold due to our wedding plans. We hope to get back to Asheville next spring if not before then. We are going away for Christmas together to create our own memories and our own traditions but we are going back to Key West. We haven't even been and we are already going back. How does that happen? Charlie and I are lounging at least the first part of the morning. There he is, already taking a nap, and we just got up! Silly dog!.
My showers... I feel so b
lessed, these special people in my lives took out the time and money to plan such pretty showers for me. I will be forever grateful. the first shower I went to was the one Ch
ad's aunt Nancy planned (his sister-in-law took part too but she wasn't there at the time). Everything was so pretty, she had all of the colors matching, it was perfect. The games we played were hilarious, and the food was perfect. I think we were all ready for a nap by the time it was over. Jill took a picture of my tattoo; Nancy touched it by accident. It is still healing but it doesn't hurt anymore so no worries. It is perfect though, I love it!

I had been botherin
g my mom and my sisters about honeymoon gifts. We have received a lot of household things but nothing for the honeymoon and we are going to KEY WEST! We have no beach towels of our own, no beach bags, we needed sunscreen, etc. So my mom blessed me with beach towels and a beach bag at this shower! Yay! We are so excited, our fund is growing slowly but surely. We found this website: http://www.floridakeyswebcams.tv/ it is awesom
e. We go online everyday to see the sunset, and to see how the weather is, generally. It is so cool. If you have time you should check it out. I am going to change my video bar to show videos of Parrot Key which is where we are staying, check those out too. Most people we know have never been but are hoping to go soon. I hope to provide them with lots of info when we get back.

The next shower was thrown by my best friend Lori and 
Melanie! I was anticipating them both but I couldn't wait to see what they had planned because it was all top secret! It was so great! The food was great, the dessert, even better. And I think I laughed really really hard a few times, so good news, I lost weight too! hehe, probably not! My mom surprised me with an even prettier beach bag, beach towels, sunscreen, and tanning oil. When I held the towel up I didn't even realize, I kind of looked like a mermaid.
.
I was also so surprised and so happy when I opened Shannon's gift, a handmade
, knitted blanket for Chad and I. It was s
o special. We definitely passed that one around, and someone actually tried to steal it! My sister got it all on camera too. Handmade gifts are always so special. We will cherish it forever. I also received some of my china, towels, and other various things off my registry. We are so excited to finally have a full kitchen, almost. We haven't had to return anything, everything was perfect!
.
All in all it was a great weekend. We have one more shower this weekend. Our church decided that they wanted to throw us a shower too, so we have that one on Sunday afternoon. I am so excited to see everyone at church. I think it will be great! This one is a uni-sex shower too so men and women will be there, I am so excited! Chad and I have been so blessed and we have been staying on top of Thank you notes. I mailing a whole stack today. Thank you to all of you who have done so much for us! We love you all!
