My First Baby Shower!

I was the guest of honor this past weekend at a baby shower. This shower was for all of our family and friends in Mobile, AL. (Wes and I are both from Mobile) There were LOTS of people there and LOTS of presents to be opened. It was a great shower and was hosted by my 3 bridesmaids - my sister, Margie; Wes' sister, Sara; and my friend from HS, Karla. The food was great and the company was even better. I was so excited to see some people that I haven't seen in a while. Wesley was the "hired" photographer for the event so we got some good shots I'd like to share with you all. Now, I use the word "hired" loosely....he's not really getting paid. I was so overwhelmed by all the wonderful gifts! I loved everything, but I know I didn't show it as much I should have....it was just so overwhelming!

This is me with my sister and sister in law. They both wore pink for the occasion!


This was the yummy cake. It's from the same place that we got our wedding cake!


Check out all the gifts behind me. There were SO many...you can't even see them all in the photo. We are so lucky to have so many friends and family that love us!


This is the beginning of the gift-opening. As you can see, I had lots of help. That's Abby in the front and Andrew behind me.


I don't know why I am making a funny face, but how cute is this dress??!?!! Wes' mom gave us that. I bet you will be seeing Baby Avery in that as soon as she can wear it.


This is one of my DEAREST friends, Stephanie. We have been good friends since the 6th grade....OMG - that is TWENTY years!!!!! I love you Steph!


These lovely ladies are the reason I am here! This is my grandmother and my mom. Aren't they cute? Have I ever told you that my mom and I won a mother/daughter look-a-like contest about 14 years ago?? I get my curly hair and my annoying personality from my dad. All the other genes are straight from my mom.
