"Building A New Life Together"
Billy & Paulette's Wedding Shower
November 18, 2001

We've always done thematic parties, but the idea for this theme was all Andrea's.  I think it's the best one we've ever done.  Of course, I wasn't really a sub-contractor on this job - that credit goes to Aunt Gayle, Aunt Lucie (sorry for the misspelling on the invitation!), Andrea, Roxane, and Brandy.  I suppose I was just an apprentice on this one - but I did get good pictures.  You can click on any image to see a larger view.  It will open in a new window, which you can just close to get back here.  If anyone has any pictures they would like to include on this page, you can send them to me digitally via email by clicking here, or you can send them to me and I will scan them and send them back to you.  The CD-ROM Album is available to any family member who requests one.  Enjoy.

The cake is a split Doberge cake from Gambino's Bakery.  (Hi Vicki!)  I put the strawberries in the little dump truck, and got bonus pay.  (I got to eat the spares.)
