Up 'til now the gifts had all been pretty domestic. Then we got to the last 2 gifts - from the Grandmas!
|
|
11:00 PM - Jean Hane Victoria's Secrets night gown and matching robe
Yes, believe it not, Sean's Grandma went into a Victoria's Secrets store!

12:00 Midnight - Mary Strickland (Patty's mother in Washington)
Oh my, what could it be to make Laurie blush so?!
|
 |
|
The Kline girls couldn't believe that their Grandma had bought condoms - "Pleasure Pack" no less! She also sent pillow cases.
Patty thought maybe her mom didn't want Laurie to have twins too soon!
|
|
|

|
After presents we enjoyed some cake then played one more game.
|
|
|
Susan had emailed Sean 23 questions and copied his answers. She passed those questions with his responses out to everyone. We had to guess how many of Sean's answers we thought Laurie would get right.
|
 |
|

|
Every time Laurie got an answer wrong she had to put a stick of bubble gum in her mouth!
That's one...
|
|
|
|
Oh no, there's another one...
|
 |
|

|
Question: What's Sean's favorite ride at an amusement park?
Answer: (Laurie had so many sticks of gum in her mouth all she could do was wave her hand) rollercoaster
That's right, whew!
|
|
8 sticks of bubble gum later...
Laurie was disappointed she only got 15 right. She had predicted 22 out of 23!
|
 |
|

|
It was a tie between Louise and Heather. Aunt Louise won the coin toss and the third prize.
|
|
What a fun shower!
Thanks for all your work and great food, Susan, Katie & Jayna.
Can't wait until August!
