A Weekend of Showers!

Less than 2 months and we will be married! Crazy to think about....time is definitely flying by! This past weekend was just great. Friday night Erik and I had our first shower! Erik's aunt, Lynn, threw us a "Stock the Bar" shower and it was so fun.  The idea was for people to bring the recipe for their favorite drink and all the ingredients needed to make the drink.  I have never been to a shower quite like it!  It will be perfect for entertaining or just sitting back to enjoy a nice refreshing drink on our deck. We are both so thankful for loving, supporting, and thoughtful friends and family as was evident on Friday night.
Just to share, here are some of the most interesting drink recipes we got! Here are the "Michelada" recipe and the "Moscow Mule" recipe.  I am excited/nervous to try both of them, but I trust they are good if they are truly people's favorite drinks!

Michelada:
12 oz. beer
juice of 1 lemon
2 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 dash soy sauce
1 dash Tobasco sauce
1 pinch black pepper
salt around the rim


Moscow Mule:
2 oz. Vodka
1 tbsp. lime juice
8 oz. Ginger Beer

I also went to a baby shower for a good friend of mine from growing up.  She is due in May and looks just great! It was awesome for all of us girls to be back together celebrating the first baby of the group! Congratulations to Hannah and Ryan! Here's to hoping and praying that these last 6 weeks will go quickly and smoothly!
