A Surprise Baby Shower





After months of plotting and planning, today my girlfriends and husband pulled off a surprise baby shower! I realized how blessed I am to have such a great group of friends and a loving husband. As far as I knew, at 2:30 today we were arriving at my friend Lillie's house to hang out with her family and watch football. The funny part is that I was embarrassed to go over there because I was coming empty handed. Even as Dan and I approached the front door I was stressing over showing up without food or drink. What a splendid surprise it was to open the door and discover smiling faces of people I never imagined to be there. Dan left with Lillie's husband while the females enjoyed some girl time. We played games, ate lots of yummy food, opened presents, and I asked questions of the mothers there for any advice they had to offer for me and my youngin'. It was such a great time to be had for all. Two of the girls had even constructed a diaper cake! A slideshow of the shower pictures is located on the left. I felt really special today and was extremely grateful to share my baby excitement with my bay area friends! Kudos and praise to Dan for helping set up the party, preparing and sending the evite, and making sure all the details were together in order for me to have a fantastic day. Man... I just love that boy!

Kisses!
