Baby Shower Round Two

I mentioned last week that I work with some wonderful people. Thankfully, so does the husband! On Thursday his co-workers put together an awesome shower for us and Baby R.
And it was baseball themed! They know the husband well. 
There were cute baseball lanterns everywhere. I’ll have to try to find a way to incorporate them in to the nursery. 
I forgot to get a photo of all the food…everything was so yummy! But I did get a pic of the cake! It was seriously amazing….luckily the husband brought a few more slices home afterwards (although I think that was mostly his friend Hillary’s doing….thanks Hillary!)
We were both blown away by the generosity of the husband’s co-workers. 
Cute but blurry photo of us and some bath toys! Baby R got a ton of adorable stuff!
The husband with his friends and party organizers: Hillary, Joel, and Geori. 
Thank you all so much! We had a great time!

    That is so sweet! You could hang the paper lanterns in a cluster – that's what we did above the crib!
