Yeehaw!

There once was a bridal shower for Brent and Sarah:

Everyone was invited:

Yeehaw! You are invited to an old-fashioned Texas Ho Down.
Where: The “O” corral (Grandma O’s church in Springville)
When: High noon (Friday, June 25 at 5:30 p.m.)
Who’s invited: Ladies and Gents, including the Youngins
Come ready to eat some good grub and kick up your heels!
Love, Grandma O. and Georgia

Everyone came dressed appropriately: cowboy style. Sarah and Brent are moving to Houston in October, hence the theme.

Well, at least the young ones dressed up.


The decorations were amazing! On each table, the centerpiece was a gift for Sarah and Brent. These were the dry ingredients for an apple cinnamon pancake recipe:
Aunt Nina provided the beautiful roses from her very own garden.
At the table when you walked in, there was a notebook to write down helpful kitchen hints for Sarah and Brent's future. Hints like: Don't burn the bacon or clean as you cook.
And of course, it would not be an Ogles event unless there were performances.
Here are myfavs:

Darcy sang a unique version of Train's "Hey Soul Sister" that explained how Sarah and Brent met:

Hey, hey, hey.

I--R--S... We want to thank you for her taxing mess,
As they figured out her incomes--
brown eyes gazed into her green ones...bottom line.
They hit it off,
Then separated and they felt the loss
At the temple they collided,
it was then he decided to ask her name.

CHORUS: Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know. Hey soul sister, we don't want to miss a single thing you do.... tonight.

Hey, hey, hey.

Cal-i-for-nia trip,
a romance growing step, by step, by step
Mickey gave direction,
A Disneyland connection you can't denyyyyyy.
Both mother's shared a meal at Tortilla Joe's,
They sealed the deal, oh yeah.
They finally did their thi-ing,
She got a diamond ri-ing
It happened at the Jr. High, "oh my."

Repeat CHORUS

Now the wedding date is set,
It will be 6 months since the day you met,
August 12, 2010, you've been dreaming of then
We'll all be there your family,
It was meant to be
It's the day you say "I do"...for eternity.

Repeat CHORUS. End Song.

And then, of course, the other Bodily performance of the night:

Ty, without breaking into laughter (or even a smile), sang a male/female duet by himself, deep bass AND falsetto. The song was "Chu-Chi Face," for any of those Chitty Chitty Bang Bang fans.

Just a small verse for you to enjoy (italics are his falsetto) :

You're my little chu-chi face
My coo-chi, coo-chi, woo-chi little chu-chi face
Every time I look at you I sigh
And you're my little teddy bear
My lovey lovey dovey little teddy bear
You're the apfel strudel of mine eye
Your chu-chi woo-chi nose
Your chu-chi woo-chi eyes
They set my heart a flutter
Your ooo-chi coo-chi ways
Your ooo-chi coo-chi gaze
Wilts me down like meltings butter
You're my little chu-chi face
And you're my teddy bear.

*Laughter**Tears**Laughter*

And of course, a shower isn't a shower unless there are presents.
Lots and lots of presents:

After the shower, the sunset was pretty awesome.
The End.
