Showering the Bride

I couldn’t help but posting a few pictures from Carrie’s bridal shower. The shower was held in Syracuse and brought together a good mix of Carrie’s friends from vet school, high school and college. We had good eats, presents, games and an appearance by “flat Garth.” Carrie’s crafty mom constructed a life-size replica of Garth, so that while he was still deployed in Iraq, so that he could join in the festivities. “Flat Garth” provided much entertainment for Carrie & I at our Pinckney Road apartment, but the fun was brought to an end when the “real” Garth came home and disposed of “flat Garth” stating that he was creepy. After the shower I got to experience trying on dresses with my fellow bridesmaids, the offerings from David’s Bridal were hideous and we ended up with some amazing Anne Taylor options in the end (see above).
