An Irish Girl's English Tea Party




Saturday was a wonderful day. Shea's Aunt Theresa and her very good friend Dianne created much more than a bridal shower.

It was a day full of memories that I will cherish forever. There is so much to be said about that day. It was more than food and gifts. It was filled with a great deal of laughter and few tears. It was a blessing to share the day with my closest friends, my dear sister and my beautiful new family.

The day included my dear Aunt Theresa, who has an Irish heart of gold. Dianne, who co-hosted the day has a welcoming heart. The day would not have been the same without her hand on it. Aunt Cathy, who is truly a special women. She has for the last 7 years made me feel so welcome as a part of her family, even just as a friend to Shea. She never misses a single birthday or holiday. There are no two better Aunts in this world than her and Theresa.

Carolyn, a second cousin of Shea's is a joy to be around, I was honored to have her there as a part of this day.

Angela, my wonderful mother-in-law, words really can not describe my adoration for her. I count her among my best friends. She kept us all in stitches the whole day.

Nicki, my gorgeous sister. No one went through more than Nicki to be there. The day was even more wonderful because of her. The bond between us sisters in truly unique. She has always been one of my best friends. I have shared so much with her, I could not start this new chapter of my life without sharing the celebration with Nicki there. Jamie, my dearest friend. I look to her daily in admiration of her pure heart. I am honored that she will stand by me on the most important day of my life. And my newest friend Bonnie, she is a beautiful person and now one of my best friends. It doesn't feel like our friendship is new, because she has the ability to make everyone around her feel as though they have known her for years.

You ladies made my day! I love you all very much. Thank you for the wonderful gifts, I will cherish them always. Thank you for celebrating with me this memorable time in my life. It has been a season of many blessing. You are all my family and my life is beautiful because of your friendships and love. These memories I will cherish with all of my heart and all the scrap booking that my shelves can contain!



Hope you enjoy the pictures from the day. Thank you Jamie for the wonderful images, and capturing them all.
