Surprise Long Distance Shower

Well thank you to those of who participated in the long-distance shower for AD. For those of you who don't know, my Aunt Jan and I put together a "MAIL bridal shower" (not MALE as JB kept getting confused about) for all the family members who would not be able to attend the wedding. Participating family members sent in a card with a photo, introducing (or reintroducing) themselves to AD. Some included a monetary gift. We then put all the cards photos and gifts into a box and surprised AD with them today. I was supposed to do this on the 20th, but some cards were still trickling in, so I decided to give it a few more days. Sorry for the delay.

Here is AD before she realized that her photo was going to be going on the blog, reading the invitation we sent to everyone. The headband she is wearing had been a stocking stuffer from my mom.

Here is AD (minus the headband since she know understood this was going on the blog) opening up some of the gifts the shower purchased her. Here are the three different kind of tongs Keith decided he needed on the registry.

AD with the comforter she registered for -- Keith is explaining why he doesn't care if it is pink since he is colorblind anyway.

Thanks again to all of you who contributed. It was a fabulous surprise for the newest member of the Huisman family.
