Showers

This post is more intended for my mom...but I welcome anyone who wants to read it.

On November 11, 2010 my co-workers and boss had a baby shower for me at the office. I was not able to take any pictures as is was a surprise and I didn't have my camera with me. Needless to say there was some very yummy food, and I got some great gifts (see picture below)!

On November 20, 2010 some friends here in Iowa threw a baby shower for me. My mom wanted LOTS of pictures taken (thanks Channa). So mom...here are a few pictures of the event:

Heading off to the shower.

Some pictures of the decorations.

The dessert table. I love the centerpiece. If you look at it closely you'll see the flowers/bows are hair clips. It was a genius idea (and it was suggested by a husband of one of my friends that was helping throw the shower. Thanks Jed)!

The food. All throughout the pregnancy I have been craving potato related things. So the girls had a baked potato bar and it was YUMMY!

Here is a picture of some of the friends that came to the shower. The reason why they are so focused on a sheet of paper is because they are playing a game.

And here is a picture of the gifts that I have received.

My heart was truly touched by the amount of time and effort that went into planning the shower and the gifts. I feel so blessed. Thank you to everyone who helped make this a memorable experience for me.
