Baby shower...

Rebecca threw me a surprise baby shower. I thought we were having a primary presidency meeting. I almost showed up in my PJ's. I am glad that Mike made me put on my regular clothes, to bad he didn't tell me to put on make-up. I really wasn't feeling very good at all that day. I had a bunch of contraction and started to time them. But they stopped and I went to my "meeting." So I wasn't looking to good, but I had a really nice time. "Tack sa mycket" (thanks so much) to my Swedish friends. Your the best!

I am very, very surprised

Rakel putting the ribbons in my hair.
This is a Swedish tradition only done with church members. I had to wear them home and Mike was suppose to take them out and give me a kiss for every ribbon. So I left them in my hair and walk to my car. I passed lots of people and they were laughing at me. I had forgotten that they were in my hair and thought to myself, how rude I know that I am big and look miserable but did they have to laugh at me. The wind then blew the ribbon into my face and then I remembered I still had them in. Then I started to laugh too.
