Tim popped the question. Larissa said YES!
So we showered her with things for her nest!
Larissa's quaint tea cups needed a new mate,
So guests brought a vintage inspired plate . . .
. . . and went home with a treat to remember the day!
We missed you, Julene and Kristal.
PS ... Happy Birthday to my beautiful niece today! May God bless you and Tim as you plan for your wedding and marriage.

Thank you all so so so much! I had a great time, and the plates are all so pretty!
Sorry to miss Carrie and Naomi as well.
You and Kari sure do make a terrific hosting pair!
What a beautiful shower you hosted. Love all the details. The food looks so so good! Love what you did with the mantel. Those plates are calling out to me :0)
WOW you sure put a lot of work and time into your party! I'm sure the guests felt very pampered! Everything looks totally delish, but I'm interested in the Mexican Spirals...Mexican is a hit in our house:) Would you consider sharing the recipe? Please?:)
It all looked amazing! I love the vintage theme...and the lovely plates. Blessings to your niece as she prepares for to marry the love of her life.
I would echo Amy's comments! Recipes to follow, please! Can you do a post showing how to make the egg salad pinwheels too? That looks great and so pretty.
What a wonderful shower it must of been, great food, beautifully decorated and must of all the love that you two showed to the young couple and your guest that attended.
Wishing the couple much joy as they prepare for their big day.
I would also like all the recipes that have not been posted on your blog.
It is always nice to make new and quick recipes for any kind of showers.
Thanks for sharing

What an absolutely gorgeous shower! I don't know what looked prettier-the food or those vintage plates...wait, yes I do...the bride to be looked prettier! Those pictures are nice enough to be featured in any home magazine I've read. I'm just so impressed!
Oh, that is so beautiful. You have a real art for presenting. I love it, and am just a little jealous of your talent. That is totally not what I am good at, so I can really appreciate it.
Everything (decor, Kari and food, Mom) looks FABULOUS!!!! I so wish I could have been there ...
P.S. Happy Birthday to my beautiful cousin, Larissa!
Me too! me too! I wish I had been there! AMAZING looking food and UNBELIEVABLE decor...I agree, you and Kari make the perfect hosting pair! :)
Thank you for all your comments! You are too nice! Some of you asked about recipes...and I will gladly share. The Mexican Spirals, icicles and choux pastry are on the blog... so are Judy's amazing tomato basil brusheta sandwiches, which I made for the first time!
The egg salad pinwheels and pistachio dessert are coming later this month and the lavender cupcakes closer to Easter.
What a beautiful shower, Anneliese..love those plates and oh the food. What a delicious looking assortment.
And a beautiful bride, you can tell she was having fun:)
Looks like soooooo much fun. Glad to hear it all worked out so well.
You know how to shower others with love! Everything looks wonderful. I love how you tell you own girls how they were missed......I'm sure that means the world to them.
Great job...everything looks beautiful and very scrumptious! I'm sure a great time was had by all :)
See you soon Larissa!
Oh my - the menu alone makes me wish I were family!
