Shower or not

So my parents and I were talking and they asked if I really wanted the shower or would I just want the money that they would be spending on the shower to go buy what I want. I kinda am leaning towards the shower but the idea got me thinking

Shower or not

My parents gave us the money and I'm buying my own stuff

The only reason I'm not having a shower is because we got married last May and we felt that having a bridal shower, wedding and then a christening after for the baby was too much for people...so we opted out of the baby shower.

But I know where you're coming from...tough decisions! :)

Shower or not

I think either way is fine. I wanted to celebrate with family and friends so we did a shower and people were super generous and our registry was wiped out... but now knowing what my mom spent on the shower I could have taken that money and bought everything I needed as well... so I think it can work out either way!
