Celebrating Lindsay


Lindsay and Paul are getting married on 1.4.14 and she had to come to San Diego to finalize some of the wedding plans so we decided that this would be a perfect opportunity to have family and friends get together to celebrate her upcoming wedding.  Our great family friend, Lynne Buckley (who also hosted my bridal shower), graciously offered her home for the shower and it was just a beautiful day! 
 Since Rich didn't come with us due to work I brought Ella to the shower since I didn't want to leave my dad with both kids (although I know that he could have handled it!)  Ella wasn't crazy about napping in the pack and play in a new location so she hung out with all of the ladies during the shower.  She was tired but she was so good-I think she whimpered a few times but that was it!  
Lynne was loving some snuggle time from her 
 Getting things ready
 Laura's great idea of drink names
"Manhattan Mojito" and "San Diego Sangria"
 We interviewed Paul and then videotaped his responses and watched it during the shower.  Lindsay had to answer the same questions that we asked him and everyone enjoyed seeing if their answers matched one another's.  Happy to report that the majority did-I think they're ready to tie the knot :)
 And now for the photo shoot in the backyard

 And now for the group fun...
 Laura was a little too ambitious with the jump :)
It was such a wonderful afternoon!  Love you Linz!
