Baby Shower in Ohio
9 Nov
I had an absolutely fantastic weekend. After our fun-filled Saturday with the family, we got up nice and early for the shower on Sunday. In addition to being pregnant, my cousin Crissy also just celebrated her 30th birthday, so my other cousin Marissa (more like a sister to me) and I went and bought her a basket of fun gifts and surprised her before the shower:

Marissa was all about posing with the basket in her farmer plaid:

I loved spending time with this girl over the weekend. It’s been much too long.
Crissy asked me to take pictures during the shower, so I snapped a few of the place.

I loved the way they decorated the front. Crissy received some baby clothes as a gift a few days before the shower, so they used those as part of the decor.

The queen’s chair. She sat here for a LONG WHILE opening up gifts because she had so many.

Ironically (and not planned), the cake matched the theme.

The food was not too shabby. We played games while eating.

I won a prize in a dice game! I’m sure these bubbles will come in handy.

But even better than the bubbles and my cousin Marissa was seeing my 92-year-old Grandma. She doesn’t look a day over 75, in my opinion. (PS: She doesn’t pose well for photos)

The one of her and Marissa turned out better, I think.

The shower lasted for a couple hours because Crissy had so many gifts, like I said. She ended up getting so many handmade blankets, which I thought was really nice.

And because it was her day, she was most definitely allowed to stick her finger in the cake

What a beautiful weekend with some of the people I love most in this world!







That cake looks amazing! I’ve recently become obsessed with cake decorating blogs.
I love getting together with family. It’s always so comforting. Like a big bowl of lentils right?
Fun! Yay for bubbles hahahaha
I love your natural curl in your hair. I know I’ve said that before, but it bears repeating. So tomorrow we get some news, right?
What a fabulous time! I can’t get over how cute the whole shower looked! Loved the cake!!!
So bummed you were in Ohio while I was gone – but I already totally invited myself to come visit you and Quinn sometime soon – no worries – I have no shame
There’s nothing like cousins right? Next to sisters that’s the best friend you’ll ever have.
Oh my! What adorable decor! Glad you had a good time:)
Yay family! I have family in Ohio, too.
Aw, awesome!
Glad you had a good time with your family!
Love all the decorations–the clothesline is such a nice touch!
And I want a slice of that cake!
I LOVE that cake!
That’s definitely one of the cutest baby cakes I’ve ever seen! I love all the clothes hanging up around the room, that’s such a great idea. Family time is the best!
Aww so glad you had such a fun time seeing family. Glad you enjoyed yourself in my home state!
