Lights, Camera, Action.....Kristen's Movie Bridal Shower Weekend

This weekend Kristen had a Movie themed bridal shower. The weekend started off Friday with Ben and Rachel coming to visit before they had a wedding reception to attend Saturday. It was nice to catch up and hear about their lives. Korey and Ben also worked on "stringing" out the deck. Ben will be helping us build a deck the last weekend in July. He mapped out the deck to show us the dirt and sod we need to take out.


Here they are and our future deck!
Saturday morning we had a lazy morning, and then made the drive down to Holland. Once we arrived there was a lot of hard work to do to prepare for Kristen's shower, and thank you to everyone that had a hand in it! After we had set up the tables and such The Partenheimer posse headed to "Los Dos" with Dana and Kenny, Kary, Kristy and the girls (Kaitlyn and Khole). As usual we had a great meal with great conversation. After dinner we headed back to Mom and Dad P.'s to relax.

Khloe and I...what a cutie.
Sunday after church we finished setting up for the shower. We went all out! There were more movie decorations than you could believe. Movie posters, popcorn maker, popcorn buckets, red carpet, superstar bride chair, ticket booth, marquee, and many many more! We had some amazing food including a chocolate fountain....yummy! In addition, we played a "he said, she said" movie game. Both Craig and Kristen were taped answering a question about Kristen. The guests had to decide if it was true of false. It turned our really cute. Kristen and Craig also received some great gifts that will make their Florida home very homey. Thanks again everyone I know Kristen and Craig really appreciated it!
