I'm sitting on my future Mother-in-laws computer checking my e-mail and helping sew bridesmaids dresses for my future sister-in-laws wedding and I am having a blast. Eric and I drove up Friday, stopped in Colby and arrived in Colorado Springs Saturday morning. And here are our adventures thus far.
Saturday: We arrived and were greeted by not only the warm and wonderful J.P. and Connie, but also my new bike! It was waiting for me with a bow as I pulled up. Hooray for birthdays. We then went inside to warm homemade cinnamon roles and an egg casserole. Then Mamma Neuteboom and I went shopping for Heidi's bridal shower gift ( Connie's not mine, I shockingly came prepared this time) and the boys fixed up Eric's bike so we can ride when I get home. Then Chris came over and we got to spend some time with our future brother-in-law. Most of this bonding time was accomplished over dinner with Heidi and Chris. We then went to see Shrek the Third which was fantastic. That about wrapped up our evening as Eric and I were very ready for bed.
Sunday: Bridal Shower Day. Eric and J.P. Left early for 9 holes of golf while Connie, Heidi and I prepared for the Bridal shower. It was truly wonderful. Krista, Heidi's maid of honor, Did an outstanding job of choosing just the right location, food, and games. Heidi got all kinds of stuff we want, (Making me REALLY excited to register) and I got a chance to meet a lot of new people that are much loved by the couple. We then came back to the casa had an amazing brisket and talked the evening away.
Monday: Eric leaves me (tear) He has to get back to work on Tuesday. However, I am not lacking in entertainment. Chris and Heidi took me out to a wonderful breakfast, which included fresh squeezed OJ ( mine just happened to have champagne in it). We then worked on favor boxes and bridesmaid dresses and got ready for dinner. We had a wonderful Sushi dinner and then us kids went to see the house Heidi and Chris are looking at and went Mini golfing! It was a blast. I even won! Eric would have been proud.
And that brings us to Tuesday. Since it's only noon and much more adventures are to be had. I'll save the details until I get home and I can fill you in on the rest of the trip. That will include a trip to see one of my best friends and bridesmaids Stephanie in Denver. You'll hear from me Friday ish. Hopefully with pics.
