Baby Shower



So from my last post I was 36 weeks pregnant and I said I would post pictures of the baby shower.... well a week and a half later here she comes! I'm going to play catch up now and probably till she is in college :)

Our baby shower was an amazing day. It was a wonderfully blended co-ed shower. I've never been traditional when it comes to baby showers and it really is about the couple having a child so we thought it would be nice to have a co-ed shower. It started off with appetizers and hanging out talking with everyone. Then the girls broke away for a little game time while the guys stayed back at the bar and mingled! Everyone was able to have wine or beer except me and Nicky of course :) After a few games the girls met back up with the boys and we had a great lunch prepared by all our family members. After lunch we opened gifts and let me tell you this little girl got set up! She will be the best dressed on the block there is no doubt in my mind! We also cut into the cake while opening presents, I didn't want to cut into it, it was so beautiful I wanted to leave it alone :) The day ended with one last game of decorating onesies and it was a lot of fun to see what everyone had created.

We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family that support us 100%. We appreciate everyone that was able to be there and all the hard work that was put into it. It truly was over and above anything we had thought! We had just mentioned let's just have a casual get together nothing too crazy and then the day of it was pink and white linens with gorgeous flowers on the tables, a full meal with wine and beer, games, a scrapbook and soo much more!!!

Thank you to everyone that helped make this day such a wonderful day to celebrate our little girl particularly....

Our parents, grandparents, sisters and brothers their spouses and children and Brittany and Jesse who's hard work and love made this day possible!

Again over and above but very much appreciated!

Wish we could have been there, but can't wait to come visit the new little addition! When you guys get settled, Cori and I would LOVE to make a trip down. Dave is working in the ER all month so he may not be able to join us :(

We all had a great time celebrating two wonderful people who are already wonderful parents. Isabella is a blessing but she surely is blessed. <3
