The Engagement Party

I admit it now: this post is long overdue. We had our engagement party back in September. My dad and stepmom threw it, and it was a blast. The only downside was that Dr. Light's mom was in a non-serious car accident after she left, so a few other members of his family had to skedaddle too.

I also managed to catch no photos of Dr. Light's family. I think it will have to be up to him to grab some, as taking photos, schmoozing, and drinking get kind of hard for me. :)

My stepmom changes the chalkboard art on her kitchen pig. For the party, our initials!




It was mainly a munchies party, with plenty of cheese, crackers, and spreadables.

Loki wishes they were for him.


Bar: ready!


I definitely kiss this cook!


This fancy white apron? Not mine.


We were pretty excited for the party to start. Invited were our immediate families and the folks we'd asked to be in our wedding parties.


Maid of Honor H and her date J arrived.


And then Bridesmaid B and her boyfriend. I caught him on photo eventually.


I caught my stepmom in action behind Maid of Honor H and Bridesmaid M.


Bridesmaid E always rocks the cutest outfits!


Dr. Light is overjoyed at the turnout!


Bridesmaid M.


My stepmom J, who put everything together! It was smashing!


Stepmom and Dad. I had to take a bazillion shots to get them to act pretty for the camera.


Dr. Light and Best Man K.


Groomsman L and his family.


Told you I caught Bridesmaid B and her boyfriend! <3

My stepbrother and his girlfriend. They are kind of adorable.


Dr. Light caught up with me during the party. Or rather, he caught me and then didn't let go. Help.




Stepmom, stepbrother, and stepbrother's girlfriend. :D


Co-Maids of Honor! My twin sister Siren (obvs not her real name) and MOH H. I've known MOH H since kindergarten, so somehow it wasn't right to not have her as a MOH. That just means I get double the pampering or something, right?


Me and Siren.


Friends.
