Showered With Love

This past week, my wonderful friends here threw me the most amazing baby shower! They did an awesome job with it, and it all turned out great! Thanks so much girls! I know it is a really crazy, busy time of year, so I was so grateful to all those who were able to make it! I was so spoiled and I was showered with lots of adorable gifts for the baby! Now I'm really anxious for her to get here, so I can use everything!


The super cute party favors they made.

The yummy food! Look at how pretty it all looks!

The delicious punch

Some of the girls doing the pop quiz about me. Congrats to Laura who apparently knows me amazingly well!

Opening my first gifts. My friend Katherine made me these incredibly cute dresses. Don't you just love them?! There is another one I hadn't opened yet in this picture, and she is working on two more! I'm so spoiled! She is very talented! I think they are the cutest things ever!

Thanks so much for all your hard work girls! And thanks to all those who made it to the shower!

Derby Party

As you can imagine, around here, the Kentucky Derby is kind of a big deal! Some friends in our ward through an awesome derby party full food, fun, friends, and kids running everywhere! We had a blast. They had a derby hat contest, and everyone bet on the race. I of course didn't pick the winners so well, but it was lots of fun anyway. I have decided we should always have a big Derby celebration! I don't know why, but I love Derby. Maybe someday we will actually make it to the races, but for now, we will just enjoy watching it on TV!

I love Derby hats! So Katherine and I went on a hunt for cute derby hats the day before, but we didn't realize how expensive Derby hats are around here, so we opted for these 3 dollar hats and dollar store flowers and made them ourselves. Not the best imitation, but the price was right! Katherine's turned out lots cuter because she spray painted hers!
