~ The Baby Shower ~

Just a quick post with some pictures from my daughter’s baby shower yesterday.  She got tons of stuff for the baby!  I had these flowers on both of the tables I had set up ~ the dining room for the food items and the kitchen for the drink items.  My daughter is into the orange and green combo more so than the expected pink.

Her fiancee helped me move my black and white chair into the great room for her to sit in while she opened her gifts.

I made tea sandwiches with egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad and a vegetable garden cream cheese {which my daughter just loved}.  Along with that we had cupcakes, petit fours, tarts, cookies and cream puffs.  The food was half gone by the time I got a chance to take these pictures of it!

The favors were those styrofoam coffee cup baby booties filled with personalized M&M’s.

For the liquid refreshments we had hot tea {regular and decaf}, raspberry iced tea, a strawberry/kiwi and 7-up punch {with frozen strawberries added in}, and water {which was requested by several people}.

Some random shots of the shower.  The flowers were hydrangeas at different bloom points, and hot pink and orange daisies that I found at the supermarket.

Before I forget, I have to mention that I ordered this great diaper cake from Jamie at Crafty Couture.  She did a fabulous job on it and it arrived well packaged and intact.  The frame in the background {on the windowsill} was also something Jamie made and sent along ~ it has the baby’s name and is ready for a couple of pictures.  Jamie will work with you for your theme and how big you want your diaper cake, so definitely check her out if you have a baby shower in your future.

Here’s the daddy modeling one of his soon-to-be daughter’s outfits ~ with sunglasses and sandals to match!

Her BFF Pam is in the purple and wrote down what she received and from who.  She also made her a beautiful scrapbooked album because as my daughter said, “I love these, but I don’t have the patience to do them.”  And just like a BFF would do, Pam put the whole scrapbook album together for her so all she has to do is add the pictures!

And, of course, a picture of me with my sister, One Cheap B*tch!  {I am not short; she is tall!}.  Another friend of my daughter’s is trying to get her photography business off the ground and took some pictures that I can’t wait to see.  She took this picture for us with my camera.

All in all {even with the brief downpour as everyone was arriving} it was a lovely day!
