bridal surprise!

This weekend I was back in MD to co-throw a suprise bridal shower for my cousin, and against all odds, we did in fact surprise her!*
We played the famed toilet paper wedding gown game which everyone seemed to enjoy, and the spice identification which no one seemed to enjoy, but since everyone loved the food/cake, I will declare it a success.

I had my own surprise this weekend as well. RW and KVH were in town to check out dresses and locations for RW's wedding next spring. I realized that either I lack some sort of girlie inert interest in wedding details, or just a lack of interest in buffet menus (I was all attention for the dresses and location, but comparing different aspects of food stations found me straining to not roll my eyes, RW said I recovered well by saying I wanted to be surprised, so I'll stick to that)

*people leaving her presence to take wispered phone calls, her questioning the maid of honor about a shower/something fishy, a mass of cars in front of her mom's house coming back from an errand with the groom . . .
