"Shouldn't babies take baths, not showers?"

Spoken so true by our friend Adam.  His wife and I along with 5 other ladies hosted a baby shower for our wonderful friend Lauren this weekend.  She and her husband Gray are due to have a baby boy in September!  I had fun, as usual, making the food for the event.  Lauren got a lot of great stuff for baby, and we got to surprise her with a super cool bench made by her favorite artist, Brian Andreas.  The bench has this hand-stamped on it:   For a long time there were only your footprints & laughter in our dreams & even from such small things, we knew we could not wait to love you forever.  Sweet, huh?  The bench looks something like this:

Here are some pictures from the event!

Wish I could take credit for these beauties!

Gray would have it no other way than to have his boy dressed in Under Armor


There's a funny (but long) story behind this mobile

Eyes closed, waiting for the bench reveal

Hooray!  She liked it!
