Mr. Kiwi and I attended our couple’s shower last weekend. Despite all my fretting, everything turned out great! It was a little awkward, as my mom arrived with us, and it was a good half-hour or so until her family arrived. I know she was a little nervous because she was trying to be on her best behavior, but still trying to be polite.

I managed to take a few pics, but it was so hot I just wanted to spread out over the air conditioning vent on the floor. Mr. Kiwi had a great time, and our families enjoyed meeting- from what I heard, at least!

Now, the pics, a lot of them aren’t good since I was trying to squeeze them in amongst hugs and squeals of “hi” !

Mr. Kiwi and I outside, bursting into flames.

The inside of the shower, a very dark picture. My future mother in law standing up, with my future niece to the side.

Picture of Mr. Kiwi enjoying all the wrong answers to “How well do you know the couple?”

My future nephews very engrossed in the gift unwrapping.

Mr. Kiwi getting great joy from the gifts (check out my face in all of these pics- it was SO HOT !)

I’m not picking my nose here, honest. Just shoving up the glasses! That thing he’s holding is Mickey and Minnie, the commemorative framed stamp thing from the Post Office. Very cute, and going in the bedroom- the theme is love- perfect, right?

The kids being crazy. Our ringbearer is on the floor, after having the pillow swiped out from under him.

Mr. Kiwi laughing at the kids throwing trash.

Finally, the last pic of us from that day. I still want to crawl over to that a/c vent.
