Saturday June 9th, 2012 we had Ann's baby shower. My sister and Aunt Mary put most of it together, with mom, Eileen, Jennifer, and Nancy helping. It was held at Central Christian Church and turned out wonderful. The fact that we were all speaking after it was over says something about the way it went.
We got there around 10:00am to set up. There were tables to decorate, food to get ready, and people to greet.
We had a jungle/sports theme. Ann loves animals and sports so it was pretty easy to put together. And it seems jungle animals are the in thing right now.
These were placed at each setting. Debbie made up the cards and Mary did the adorable candy bars.
It was easy to decide on a theme once Ann picked out her crib motif. She fell in love with this pattern so we designed everything around it. I mean really, how cute is this blanket!
Debbie thinks she's funny
What a super cute diaper cake. Who was the extremely gifted person who made this? Oh right, me!!!! We used Ann's beanie babies as part of the decorations.
Aunt Mary made this adorable wreath to hang on the door to the hall
Debbie made these super cute table decorations
4 generations!
There was a wonderful turnout. We are so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. And yes, that is Jennifer giving her Jesus impression on the stage : )
Everyone talked about how wonderful the food was. A huge thanks to everyone who contributed.
Ann hates giving speeches
Cate opened every single gift. I am not even sure Ann knew what she was getting. Brady helped keep everything organized and made sure all the wrapping paper was thrown away. Ann said she couldn't have done it without him.
Nora and Kenzie
At one time Ann had every kid up on stage. I was exhausted just watching them
Ann's soccer girls. She has made some great friends and Lindenwood and she was very happy to see them come to her shower.
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO MADE THIS A WONDERFUL BABY SHOWER!!!
