What to do when your bridal shower gets postponed...

Hang out with your fiance of course!!! Even though we do that ALL the time anyway ;)

So even though we told the ward about the informal "bridal dessert night" my roommate was throwing me, it turns out everyone (okay, maybe not EVERYONE, but a large percent) went out of town...or had a date...or something or other. oh well. it's going to be on Tuesday now.

I made peanut butter balls and brownies for it to help out with the refreshments, now let's hope they make it to Tuesday! (John might eat them) I had john help me put the chocolate on them...we got a little messy...and it was kind of my fault, okay, i smeared chocolate on john's face. then took a picture. see?
Sometimes john wonders how great this blog is... ;)

So as we had been planning on the bridal shower, we found we had no plans for tonight!!! After some heavy duty brainstorming, we invited John's cousin and her husband, Jessica and Dave Clyde, to come over and have a bridge building contest. We had nothing but gum drops and toothpicks to make it. Oh, and two cups.

Our bridge won!! hurray! it held 3 knives and 2 forks!

We were quite proud of ourselves. :) Then we played the BEST German game, Ligretto and i succeeded in keeping my score in the positive numbers! hurray! It was probably one of the most INTENSE ligretto games EVER. Dave and Jessica were neck and neck, and then all of the sudden, John caught up without any warning! The winner must get 100 points...everyone else was in the 80's and 90's, i was content in the 30's and 40's. It was a nice place to be. :)

Well, i've survived 3 tests, and john survived four days of 3pm to 1am production work. 1 test on monday and 28 days to the wedding! WOO HOO!
