A Baby Shower


The other night I had a baby shower for a friend of mine. She's having her 3rd child, but 1st girl! I feel like so many people have helped us out by giving us showers for our first 2 kids and diaper showers for kids 3 and 6. So I try to pay it forward by having or helping others with theirs.... especially if it's their 1st of the gender. It worked out well because we had our carpets shampooed on friday, so we took everything out of the rooms and put it in the garage.  So we just kept everything out there for the shower so I could fit people and food. About 24 women came! So thankful for all the love and support given to April!
WE had optional games just in case people didn't want to play and just hang out.

Desert Table

So I'm pretty simple when it comes to decorations. And this was the extent of it.

The appetizer table. Not everything was out yet. But what did I do with my kids and the few kids that came over? The boys stayed outside in the backyard, as you can see through the window. And the girls stayed up stairs.

Having the homework desk worked out great for the appetizers. This is also the toy room. My hubby doesn't want me to bring the toys back in, but my lil boys are bored without them. So they're coming back.
So thankful that Cheri helped! No one should ever have to do a baby shower alone! My friend Donna helped too, but couldn't come because she had a migraine that night.
This is April! Isn't she beautiful! She is awesome!
