See the Photos From Alex’s Beautiful Bridal Shower (in the Bakery!)

The clock is ticking away toward Alex and Mauricio's wedding; it will be here in less than a month! And okay...I know the day isn't about me, but here's my wedding update anyway: I have narrowed my dress decision down to two choices, I'm exercising like a woman with a mission, I decided to wear my hair half up, half down (but I will probably change my mind four times on that front), and maybe I'm in denial, but I can really only describe my current wedding state as...excited! I'm not really worried about anything, except my dress choices zipping—and, if they do zip, whether I'll be able to breathe if they do. But even then, I ain't that worried. That's why they invented duct tape, right?

Oh, and I guess I could be a little worried about Oklahoma weather since the wedding is outdoors.

And maybe I could be a little concerned about the Drummond dogs and how to keep them from finding the reception food before it makes its way out to guests? They're good, man. They have sniffers.

But honestly, not really worried! We're all having fun, and Alex had her bridal shower last weekend. It was hosted by Ladd's brother Tim's wife, Missy, her daughter, Halle, as well as my BFF Hyacinth and her daughter (and Alex's BFF) Meg, and our longtime family friend, Haley...who used to babysit my kids and who happens to work for me now! (Whew...did you get all that?)

Recent rains thwarted the shower being held outdoors at Missy and Tim's place, so they wound up pulling it off in the bakery at The Mercantile, which was lovely! I didn't do a thing except show up ready to eat. (I'm good at that!) Here are some photos from the sweet event. I think this wedding just might happen!
