It's Raining Gifts

Last weekend the church were Daniel and I grew up and where my dad still pastors threw us a wonderful shower. I went down on Friday afternoon and got to spend the whole weekend. We had so much fun and got more that we could have ever asked for. This church has always out done themselves taking care of us and they did it again. My sister and grandmother got to come, so as my dad says all of his girls were together. Two of my girls from college were able to come and it was so good to see them. And we just found out it will not be too long before we are planning a baby shower for one of them. Barri is due in October! To make it even more fun two girls I grew up with and had not seen in years were able to come. They both live in Memphis now and were able to drive over for the day! We had such a wonderful time catching up and talking together. I look forward to getting to see them more when I come to visit with Henry.

It is getting so close to his coming and I am getting more and more excited (and a little nervous) everyday! His room is almost ready. I will post updated photos of the completed room this week. We are determined to finish it this weekend. Only 8 more weeks to go!

This was the cake. It was soo cute and so good! It even matches Henry's bedding.



This one is a bit blurry, but it was so sweet I wanted to show it. The hostess and ladies at the shower wrote advice about being a mom on these cards and then hung them on the tree. They had really great things to say.
