We've been waiting and hoping that Carli would join the family! Chris told us a little about her at Benji and Morgan's wedding luncheon. It was a memorable talk because Greg said, "So what's different about her and all the other girls you've dated?" and Chris said, "Well, I
LIKE her." hahaha! And just to listen to him talk about her to all the extended family Cole's was different too...he was a little giddy and yes, let's say it, in LOVE! Wedding date was set for April 21 and we started making bridal shower plans. :) I usually host because I'm kinda in the middle for people. It was a busy Saturday and Carli wasn't feeling fantastic that morning, so I was happy everything worked out. I like hosting because it forces me to clean my house well and de-junk things. Plus, its lots of fun! I was grateful to have lots of helpers with food and such - especially my mom and Halle who came up early for lots of prep work. Out theme was "Adventure Awaits." I saw the sign from Salty Bison and we did everything around that. Kinda fitting since the bride and groom are "adventuring" people. :) Lace did all the invitations and signage - so cute! We played the "He Said, She Said" game again - yep, it's now tradition. :) We did 4 different types of sliders (the turkey, bacon, apple was probably the fav) with all the fixin's. {I kinda went back and forth with the menu 800 times, but this turned out great and perfect for a busy day.} It mostly just fun to visit (big thanks to all the attenders) and welcome Carli into the Cole fam!
