Little Red Wagon Baby Shower

On Saturday my mom, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law threw me the cutest little red wagon themed baby shower! I LOVED every detail. Prepare for picture overload…I seriously couldn’t get enough!

Cutest invitations ever.

Photobucket
The shower was at my house….excellent excuse to get the house clean and ready for baby.
Photobucket
Adorable porch set up. I’ve had those picnic bears (Muffy VanderBear…anyone else collect them?) since I was little and my mom thought they would be cute in the wagon for the shower…such a good idea!
Photobucket
The husband’s childhood wagon held some gifts once you stepped inside.

Photobucket
Adorable paper banners everywhere…they are the best (and easiest) decoration ever.

Photobucket
I LOVED this set up on my hutch…..paper fans, pinwheels, and pictures of me and the husband as kids.
Photobucket
Photobucket
It’s a boy! Hand me a mason jar of lemonade and I’m one happy mama!

Photobucket
The table centerpiece was another little red wagon with more bears and daises. I think my mom should be a professional party planner!

Photobucket
Amazing food set up. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law did such a wonderful job setting up the food.
Photobucket
Fruit kabobs, chicken salad sandwiches, cucumber crackers, and spinach dip. There were BBQ meatballs and lots of other fruit too.

Photobucket
The mini cheesecakes were my favorite!

Photobucket
Deadly brownies.

Photobucket
It’s a boy clothesline! I can’t wait to dress up our little guy.
Photobucket
Lemonade station and adorable flowers. They also served champagne….but I didn’t get a photo.
Photobucket
One of my mother-in-law’s friends made an adorable blanket for us….it had animals crocheted on it. In the middle is a photo of me with my mom, MIL, and SIL. And on the right is a gift from my MIL that was covered in the cards she received when she was pregnant with my husband! Such a cute idea.
Photobucket
The favors were cute little take out boxes filled with peanut butter cookies.

Photobucket
I had such a wonderful time! Thank you so much Mom, Connie, and Erin! Baby boy and I are very blessed to have each of you!
