Baby Shower!

 On April 12th (yes, I am WAY behind on blogging) Trisha, Debbie, and Vanessa threw me a baby shower.  I had gotten rid of everything after Eden thinking she was my last and had nothing.  They had asked for a guest list and I had invited only people that were close to me and that I knew would come since I had went all out for the last baby girl shower.  The shower would be falling in a really busy time too so I wanted to keep in nice and simple for the ones throwing it for me too.  It was SUPER DUPER cute!! I loved the purple owl theme!  The decorations were amazing and everything was perfect.  Unfortunately, only three people showed up. :(  I was bummed mostly because I already felt like nobody cared that we were having a baby because it is our 7th and I was bummed that the Kelley girls had went to that much time and effort and then hardly anyone showed up.  But, I wanted to make the very most of it too.  It was awesome no matter how many people showed up and I really did get to celebrate with those who are closest to me too.  :)

 Trisha made the Tastefully Simple Cinnamon muffins that are pretty much like the best muffins ever.  The whole menu was just perfect.  We had a really yummy fruit salad, little smokies....oh, and a really good punch!  

 Vanessa made some really cute stuff too!!! She made this cute little "bouquet of flowers" that was made out of baby washcloths!  Super cute! 

 The games were name suggestions and actually I got some really cute ones and funny ones too!! I saved them all! 

And a guess the birthdate calendar that I saved for the baby book too....picture further down. 

 Another Vanessa creation....The sweetest little owl diaper cakes I have ever seen!  

I was super impressed with them!

 I love the bib on this one!! lol!

 One of my very best childhood friends, Tuesday McLeod (now Carstens) was able to come over from Peoria to celebrate with me!  She and I had been pregnant pretty much the whole time together.  Her and her hubby had to do invitro fertilization to get a baby.  She was due on June 9th (I think)....after me.  Exactly one week after this photo was taken, her water broke and she had her baby EIGHT weeks EARLY!!!!!  Her and baby Kylie have been doing great though!  I was so happy she got to come to my shower though.  Me and her went to Grandpa John's cafe later to catch up with Kevin Condren a bit too!  I love spending time with my besties from high school....we don't get to do it often enough! 

 The Kelley Girls!  These ladies have become my go-to pals and those that I can confide in for just about anything!  I am lucky to have them in my life! 

 Trisha's gift for baby was a gorgeous hand made crotched quilt with matching headbands and monthly growth stickers for photos!  Love it!

 This owl cup has become my "shake cup"!  Vanessa gave it to me.....along with a bunch of other cute stuff for the baby, lol!  

Grandma Boyer showed up about half way through the party too!! I was happy she was able to make it.  She said she didn't want to miss it! 

 I got a ton of super cute stuff from everyone and I loved all of it!  Nothing got returned or anything because each and everything meant too much to me.  I was really feeling sentimental after all of it.  

 Me, Tuesday, and Brielle!  Brielle is Jed Hill's wife.  Jed is another bestie from high school.  But, Brielle and I have been getting much closer lately and I was beyond happy she made it to the shower! 

 Me and my mom-ski!  We don't see eye to eye on everything but, one thing is for sure, my mom would do anything for me and me for her.  

 Trisha snapped this cute shot of Tuesday's belly!  Good thing she got it then because Tuesday didn't have it much longer, haha! 

And here is the pic of the birthday guesses!  No one guessed the actual date but, still something to keep forever!  Thanks so much everyone for everything.  It really means more to me that I can ever express because I am not real good at expressing those type of things.  But, yeah, you are all pretty awesome!
