Oh gosh! I'm SO TIRED today! But its a good tired. We had our BBQ couple's shower yesterday and it was so wonderful. Just feeling really grateful.
Showers are so weird though, right? Like its SUPER awkward opening all the gifts in front of everybody. It was nice that both my fiance and I were able to tag team it. There were a couple duplicate things, and a few items we didn't register for lol. Has anybody ever had this with Bed Bath and Beyond where random things appear on your registry? I looked at our registry today, and stuff we received but definitely didn't add ourselves is now on the there. Super weird!
If you're like me and not super traditional, and want to do a co-ed couple's shower, I highly recommend it. I've been to so many ladies showers where everybody left right after gifts, but this was so laid back. and everybody was having such a good time that the party just kept going. Lots of our loved ones got to meet for the first time, and there was lots of "see you in September!" as people left which is awesome.
Its difficult to soak it all in. Especially the gifts. I feel like it was hard to really take in all the stuff we were receiving. Its a little overwhelming. Going to spend some time tonight going through all the cards and gifts together.
