Shower Day

2 years ago

by JR in Mississippi Life

I was kicked out of the house on Saturday around 9:30am after being sent on a million errands. I had to pick up 50lbs of shrimp to be used at our rehearsal dinner. I then just drove around trying to figure out what to do next, since my house was off-limits. I ended up getting a call from my brother Brent and went over and watched some football with him. We hung out till the shower was over and then went back home to eat left-over shower food and rest.

We watched football all day(Did you see the end of the Ole Miss/LSU game?) and then went out and saw some friends. We moved from there to Shuckers where we listened to The Foulon Brothers play a couple sets. This was my first time to hit Shuckers in Hattiesburg. The atmosphere was great. It is a very small bar and you get the feeling that everyone knows one another. In fact, I even recognized most of the people that worked there. The Foulon brothers put on a great show and are a great cover band. We also had some oysters on the half-shell! I was the DD, so I got to watch mom, JJ, and Brent shoot tequila and probably drink a little too much beer. We came back home around 12 and stayed up talking and catching up.

The was the only photo I was allowed to post from her gifts!~(Thank you everyone!!!)

Shower Prep

My mother and sister are throwing Jaeyoun a lingerie shower(Woo! Hoo! Isn’t this kind of for me) tomorrow morning at 10:30. I will be kicked out of the house around 9. I haven’t exactly figured out what I am going to do, but I will probably take my laptop to Starbucks and kill a few hours.

Jaeyoun and I spent the day running errands for my mom and ourselves. We picked up her wedding dress from the cleaners and also met with our organist/pianist. Have you ever met one of those people who is just happy to be alive? This was our first time to meet Cristina/ Mrs Moreland. She helped us pick wedding music and she was fabulous. I mean she plays the piano wonderfully, but as a person she was lovely. As soon as we started talking to her, I knew that we had picked the right person to play music at our wedding. She almost made both of us cry with her music and comments. She told us that she uses her music to bless our wedding. She goes to mass everyday and hardly ever misses a day. What a lady!~

We also hung pictures and mirrors at the house day. We both earned our keep.

JJ cooked for us tonight and after a great dinner, I had to steam the carpet and get the house ready for tomorrow. My sister and her husband went shopping and then came back and helped. The girls polished silver and made floral arrangements and the guys watched tv and played computer games. We did a little bit of work here and there, but they carried most of the load. I also got to meet my new nephew ,Joey, tonight for the first time. What a sweet kid~! I think I got him hooked on tower defense.
