surprise, surprise
My bridal shower was this weekend. I was a huge shock and I am blown away but it all. My wedding is not until may 07 but it appears as if my family has been planning it all since spring. My FI's mom was in town and I had pland to introduce her to my 3rd cousins who I have become close to since I moved to Boston. When I was showing Mike's mom around their cool apartment complex, I led her to the "screening room" where movies are shown. I immediately saw my friend inside and thought that she knew someone else in the building. When I walked in, I saw my friends, family friends, cousins in the area who I don't see often and finally my mom and sisters. That was the biggest shock since my mom and sisters have all been up here twice in the 7 years I have lived here (my graduation and a family friends wedding) and I can't get them to ever visit. Anyway, I was so anxious about my lack of family support an they all really surprised me with all the effort. That was the best gift that I could have had and it was all I needed. Anyway, I couldn't wait to share it with you guys because I have shared with you my family issues in the past. Thanks

Oh, I'm so happy to hear this!!! I hope it was really a great time and you enjoyed yourself, and also that your family (and Mike's) enjoyed their visit to our great city :) I'm so glad they surprised you like this, in such a great way! Hooray for family coming through!
That is such wonderful news! I'm so glad you had such a good time. Isn't it funny how family can still surprise you after all the years?
No, they all went home later that day or the next day. However I am still recovering from the big shock. It's weird walking into a room in someone else's apartment building and seeing all these people from your life, many of whom have never met before. That was the serial part.
Sarah- That is a shock! But a great one at that! I am so glad that your family did this for you!
