A Bridal shower that is! Wedding plans have now been in the works for well over two months, we have been working hard on getting everything pulled together. The first two weeks that Sharise was home from Texas we were able to scratch alot off of her to do list. At that time she was also frantically looking for a job. You know when you have bills to pay you can't go to long without a job, she was very blessed and was able to get a job only two weeks after being home. She is working at Paul Mitchell The Hair School as a receptionist. I might add she loves her job!!!!!
Along with wedding plans and to do list is also shower plans in the works. We (I and her sisters and sister in law) planned a fun little shower for her. Saturday Sept. 8 2012 at 1:00 pm, I must say she had a wonderful showing of friends and family that love her and were here to support her. We ate first ,then we played a little video that her brother had made for her, Their Engagement video go here to view video. We then had to see how well they knew each other, we asked Craig 15 questions and then Sharise had to answer them the way she thought Craig would, I might say she knows him quit well I think she only missed 2. It was a great shower, she received many things to get them started. 
(she did receive more than sleeping attire) ;)
(she did receive more than sleeping attire) ;)It is so hard to believe that my baby is getting married. With her being in Texas this past year, it has helped break us into the "Empty Nest" syndrome.
It has truly been fun preparing for her wedding, as I have watched her, prepare for her marriage. There is a difference in preparing for a wedding and preparing for a marriage. The wedding is the "bells and whistles" so to say, the wedding will be over with in a few hours but the marriage, is for eternity. I have truly enjoyed watching her, this past year prepare for her marriage, learning and growing in the gospel, preparing herself for an eternal marriage. She had wonderful examples in her 3 older sisters and older brother who prepared in that same way, they all have wonderful marriages, and have been great examples to her.
As for Ron and I, in another month, we will really be in that next faze of our lives. Last year was a trial run for us, there were some bumps and some sharp turns, but I think for the most part we did OK!!!
SO........................................................ bring on more grandkids!!!!!!!!!!
