As in, it's been raining. Today we even had some hail.
And, Maren and I gave a baby shower on Saturday for my niece Paige. Maren pointed out that that means we are about to become Great Aunts. That sounds WAY TOO old.
Maren and I are a good party planning team.
Theme: Adventure Awaits (Paige got a degree in Recreation, and works at a Rock Climbing gym, so this seemed appropriate.)
We will have to wait to see who wins this game! |
Maren got these adorable favors on Etsy (I'm not into favors, but I let her have her fun :) |
Maren also got these cute animals for decor. Amazing. |
We had yogurt parfaits. It was yummy, light and easy! |
One guest (who will remain nameless) said she wouldn't play any [stupid] baby shower games. But she was pleasantly surprised. A quiz about who knows Paige best (her mom and mother-in-law tied for the win), a Name that Tune Baby edition, and a guess how much people contributed to her "Adventure Fund" actually turned out great. We gifted Paige an additional $66.76 into the jar from people's purses, pockets and change cups. (And this was a fun throwback because Paige's mom did a variation on this game for my baby shower when I was pregnant with Libby!)

It's good to keep the links somewhere. You never know when I'll throw another shower :) Everyone but Ben thought it was a great party.
