Riverchase Shower

On February 28th, we were blessed with a wonderful church shower for the babies. We were overwhelmed with everyone's generosity and kindness. The weekend started off great with a visit from my 3 college roommates/suitemates. They made the weekend even more special and I am so thankful to them for making the trip down to see us! (They also helped me pick out a shower dress, which is very difficult to do being 30 lbs heavier than the last time I shopped!)


The decorations and preparation for the shower were amazing. All the hostesses did such a fantastic job, especially with a double task at hand, boy AND girl decorations. Very creative gals!


Girl table, complete with a newborn picture of me in the frame, raspberry punch, diaper cake and a stroller fruit holder (very impressive)


Boy table with another very cute (and useful) diaper cake, blue punch, decorated plate and a newborn picture of Josh (who is screaming bloody-murder)


Hostesses' gifts of TWO carseats (thank you!!) and complete first year scrapbooks created by my very talented sister in law. I can't believe she was done with them already! And they are so cute.


Sign in table.....I really loved the brown polka dots.



Steed family gals


All the wonderful hostesses (not sure if you can see the cake very well, but it was a stroller, HOMEMADE by one of the hostesses. Very cute and very tasty)



Finally, here is a collage of pictures my sister-in-law took, who is a much better photographer than I . Thank you again for everyone who made this such a special day!

  1. I'm thankful for the roomates so I didn't have to help with the dress 30 lbs heavier! I am also extremely thankful for everyone's enormous generosity!
