Beautiful Bridal Shower For My Beautiful Tatum


Tatum is getting married on October 6, 2012 so the festivities have finally begun!
My mom and I threw Tate a great bridal shower and the color scheme was decided by none other than the invitation:)  The very first thing I made was this cute little table cloth to fit the cake table.



I love these darling little felt flowers.....


Toasting the bride to be with yummy champagne.
By the way....I did decide to wear shower colors and ended up looking very bright!  lol
Oh well!


Loved her cupcake wrappers that I found on Etsy. 
The diamond (fake of course) rings were at Joann's in the wedding section and looked so fun on top of each little cupcake.



We decided to make it a relaxed dinner with simple food.
BBQ brisket sandwiches, Cherry Avocado Salad, Fresh Fruit Salad with an Amaretto Fruit Dip, Loaded Baked Potato Dip and Chicken Enchilada Dip (recipes courtesy of Pinterest)

Me and Summer!  We so needed another bottle of Champagne...hee hee


Grammy and Tatum



Such a pretty girl...she will make an excellent wife. 




Me and my girl....Can not wait until the Bachelorette Party and of course the WEDDING!



Amaretto Fruit Dip

1 large container Cool Whip
1 large jar of Marshmallow Cream
Amaretto to taste

Mix the Cool Whip and Marshmallow Cream in a large bowl. At this point if you want to color the dip to match your party scheme you may do it now.  Add enough Amaretto to your desired taste.  With this amount of dip I would start off with about 3 tablespoons, stir and taste:)  Just keep adding until you like it....and believer me....you will LOVE it!
