The location was perfect. The Arts Association building is a gem. Once a bank, then a family home, it is now the perfect venue for display of artworks and for performances and shows. I think I will be heading back often to make purchases! 
We arrived on the dot of 2 and had no trouble at all finding the shower location.
This was a shower for family and close friends of the groom and his family. Here, some of the guests wait for the festivities to begin. Zoom in to look at some of the pieces on the wall behind them!
As is custom, the "young ones" assisted with the gifts. Seated here are (from left), the newest bride and soon to be sister-in-law, the next bride and soon to be sister-in-law, sister of today's bride-to-be, and maid (or matron?) of honour for today's bride. Got that? In the background are the chief organizer of the event and her daughter.
Two of the bride's grandmothers were there to help celebrate. At each occasion they find more things they have in common!
Most recent bride, and sister of the groom, works her magic with the bows and a paper plate. We are so glad that today's bride is able to wear at least one ribbon hat!
Mother of the bride and bride to be with one of the gifts - a very interesting plant! 
And here she is...modelling her newest wardrobe accessory. You can't go wrong with a great hat!
The groom came at the end to mingle with relatives and friends. Everyone is so happy for this couple!
All in all it was a lovely afternoon, but what else could it be when there was so much love in the room. Once again, I have to say how blessed we are to have family and friends who care about all of us so much. Thanks to all of you!Oh yes...one last picture of one young man who didn't get to go to the shower! He stayed home and watched NASCAR races with Dad instead! Probably just as well.
