A Shower for Baby...

We welcome "Baby Carroll with a shower

with more than just gifts...

but a shower of prayers and even tips!!....

Sunday, October 5, 2008 I threw Erin a baby shower. I organized the shower with the help of Bekka who graciously let us use her home.

I had the ladies create a prayer for Erin, Nathan & Baby and decorate it very pretty....
and boy do I know some creative ladies.

The goal was for Erin to be able to keep and cherish these heartfelt prayers for her family.

Task #2 was to make a tip.

Everyone made up a tip for each child they have at their current age. Or a good marriage tip to keep things fresh.

So, some made 1 card, some made 5...

I will put these in order, so that she will have a bundle of tips helpful for a span from 0-23 years of age. . .

The Momma to Be having a conversation.. sorry Erin that I didn't take an official

picture of you!

When you order things like this.. be sure to have some helpful hands..

Thanks, Kathleen! It was fun: "Lovin me some Kathleen........."

This is Jill, Lisa, half of Susan, and Cami talking and decorating....

This was the beautiful Table that Bekka set up.. she made her the diaper cake...

I know that I am destined to be a teacher when I get excited over working bodies, busy with the task at hand!!! They were very busy getting the "assignment" done!

These ladies are eating.. and enjoying each others company, I hope!

This is a Prayer Page designed by Gretchen!

She done an awesome job.. there were SO MANY beautiful designs..

It took my breath away what these ladies were praying...

You are awesome, girls!

Ladies eating.....

This is Pastor Nick filling out the cards for a tip for each child:

You can imagine what they say, and I am not too sure if they are helpful, but maybe...

food...

This is what the "Price is Right" game materials looked like. They were to go around the house and find 6 items and guess what they cost at Wal*Mart.

Some women guessed Baby Wipes were $6.39!!! Nah, just a $1.37

Shop cheap, girls!

CONGRATS TO MELANIE BOND FOR HOLDING 1ST PLACE PRICE IS RIGHT WINNER.

Lauren LeNeave holding 2nd place. Good job girls!

This is the Art table, pre-party!

Still Busy at Work......


This party was a blast to throw. I hope that Erin will love the things that we made for her for many years to come. I hope that those of you that could come enjoyed yourselves.

Happy Baby!
