Meghan helps slice cheese.

Katie frosts the cake.

Uh ... LOTS of sprinkles!
I kept running out of one color, then another, so to patch it all up, I just had to use more than I'd planned. :)

The bride-and-groom froggies made by Aunt Laurie Holmes.

Jerilyn hosted the shower.
(That's not Jerilyn, though - that's the dog.)

A cool decoration made by Jerilyn.

Autumn (Jerilyn's daughter and one of the flowergirls.)


Yummy food!

Jerilyn and Tammy answer questions about Justen & Erica for a game.

Mom G and Meghan.

Brie Honeycutt, Jenn Shinn, Jacquie Serr.

Game #2: Guess the Groom.
Seeing as Justen's buff legs are Erica's favorite physical feature, we decided to test her knowledge of how well she could recognize them.
The Rules: Erica has to stay blindfolded and guess which man is hers by feeling his leg.
She knew Sher was the wrong one ...

... She recognized Daniel's leg ...

... Clay can't fool her either ...

... Not even Autumn could trick Erica! ...

... She knew right away which one was Justen!

Erica and her, uh, prospective grooms?


Time for gifts ... 9 out of 10 from Victoria's Secret.
(That means the guys have to leave.)



Back row: L-R: Crystal Gutierrez, Tammy Sanchez, Runi Steen, Jerilyn McKinney, Meghan Takahashi.
Front row: L-R: Holly Stalnaker, Brie Honeycutt, Erica, Katie, Mom.

After the shower, we went out to Fuddrucker's for dinner with Erica & Justen, Crystal, and the McKinneys.


The Blues Brothers meet the Blues Sisters.

HUGE SALADS!!!


HUGE BURGERS!!!

Also in March, Erica was able to come up to LA for a day so she and Katie could do "wedding stuff."

They spent painstaking time making all the favors by hand - little bubble blowers ...

... with hand-beaded wires to decorate them ...

... and hand-stamped, embossed initials on each one.
Phew!! Cheap, maybe, but no easy task to make!
