Couples Baby Shower

Group photo (missing a few people)!


So I posted about my baby shower in Knoxville, but I also wanted to share about our shower we had here.  The lovely Kacy was kind enough to take on the task, as were her mom and aunt.  Tony and I are so grateful  and love that we have these people in our lives here.  They are the best!  


It was a couples shower, complete with food, drinks, and great family and friends.  I will let the pictures speak for themselves.  We had a great time - and it was so funny to experience friends from different areas of life - old friends, work friends, school friends, church friends, etc. - all in the same room at the same time.  We are definitely blessed to know them all!


It's cuteness overload.








My two nieces, Lyla and Ava, finally meeting for the first time!  They were very sweet to each other.










We're due two days apart, it had to be done.

And of course we got a ton of gifts!  People are sooo generous at baby showers!  So much cute and practical stuff.  I can't get away without mentioning some of the homemade gifts as well:

Kacy made this awesome diaper cake - so colorful and fun!  And of course filled with tons of diapers and accessories (and a cute pig!)



My sister in law Jennifer also made a diaper cake!  These girls are so talented!  I know it takes a ton of time and effort - so I was so excited to see these creations!



My friend Kim was kind enough to make me a nursing cover - she is the sewing queen - check out her stuff on her blog!

Tony had to try that one out as well - it works.

This is a poor picture of it, but Kacy's gift (another one!!) was this adorable bag with a set of squishy fabric blocks inside.  (Kim made this too - see her post for better pics!).  It was so sweet of Kacy to think to "commission" that :)  I know baby will love them!



My mom and sister were able to come down for the shower, and among other gifts, they made something too!

Courtney made this really cute framed letter that I'm going to hang in the nursery (as soon as I get my act together!)


My mom took this picture I love and mod podged it to a teal board and added ribbon - it perfectly matches the nursery colors!



So there you have it.  I have amazing friends and family.  The end.
