Winner and Shower , Yay!

by Healthy Diva on May 31, 2011

Good Morning! Back to work after a long 3 day weekend for most I know , Mike is back to work today, BUT , it will be a short week!

Back to yummy oats at home for me, which I love!

 

I had a pumpkin caramel overnight protein oatmeal bowl

  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1 cup water
  • SunWarrior Protein Powder Vanilla
  • 1 tbsp golden flaxseeds
  • pumpkin pie spice
  • cinnamon
  • Topped with Caramel Protein Frosting and Kays Naturals Cinnamon Almond bites (crushed)

LOVE me some PUMPKIN!

 

I also LOVED our gifts we got from the shower on Sunday at Mike’s Moms!

It was a small shower, Mike has a very small family, but it was so special!

 

Looking the other way, candid  ;-)

 

 

 

Macaroni Salad

 

Some kind of sweet apple salad yum!

 

Me saying I was going to spank Mike with the rolling pin! ha! i was telling everyone about it ! Im crazy, just so everyone knows  :-D

 

 

We got some wonderful stuff! We have SO many things now for our kitchen! Between this bridal shower, my one in PA, and just gifts being sent to the house, we have a ton!

 

Making a slice in our cake! Have to practice for the big day!

It was so nice to spend time with Mike’s family, we looked at old photos too from Mike’s moms wedding!

 

Mike, his gram, and his aunt looking over photos and talking, so sweet!

 

Here is a newspaper  wedding announcement from when Mike’s mom and Dad got married, it was really cool to see all the photos! Mike’s dad passed away tragically when he was 8 years old  :-(

 

We had a wonderful weekend! I am glad I got to share with all of you ALL the stuff that has been going on, leading up to my big day! I will be sad when its over!

 

Before I go , the GIVEAWAY WINNER for the SunWarriror Protein Powder is…………

Awh so glad you had a lovely bridal shower weekend with Mike’s family, they seem like a lovely warm family. That cake looks tasty!!! Do you ever have days where you could just eat and eat and eat? Having one of those days today, my body wants chocolate, chips and ice cream.
