Bachelor Season Finale

It's a DC girls tradition to have a pseudo FHE during during each season of the Bachelor or Bachelorette. There is a group of about ten of us girls that meet together each week to find out who is still in the running to finding their true love on national television. For the season finale, we pull out all the stops and have a big party inspired by the themes of the season.

The girls. This seasons Bachelor was from Seattle and so the fare and decorations were inspired from the great Pacific Northwest--notice the Space Needle designed by Melissa.

Instead of roses, the girls were asked to accept a red delicious apple--This is Michele my favorite Washingtonian.

No season finale would be complete without games. This year it included Guess the Dress and Pin the side burn on Nicki.


We celebrated the outcome and as you can see on our faces there was a surprise ending.

Dessert was representative of the new Bachelorette, Jillian from Canada! So prepare yourselves for the best season yet starting in May. I know many Smarts will be counting down the days until it starts including one of my favorite brother in laws:)

I have feigned interest in this show on a couple of occaions in an attempt to get the Shewolf to snuggle with me, but even a flower arranging guy like me with a highly developed feminine side is utterly lost as to why people watch this show. Trust me, your guy friends are watching simply to get close to girls.

We sometimes categorize people by whether they like something or not. In this case, it really simple: Women love it, men don't get it.

Chels, love the cake. Did you do the decorating? And "pin the sideburn on Nicki"? I cracked up! Too hilarious! I wish I could have swung by for the festivities. As it was, I had to talk Brent into watching (aka "suffering") through the finale. He didn't hate it as much as he pretended though. I'm pretty sure of that! ha!

Chels, you sure know how to throw a party! I love your family's blog, and I get a kick out of all their fun posts and mottos. All I remember is "Scratch and Claw!" By the way I'm from Yakima but I don't get SoCone? What am I missing?
