sweetpea's baby shower


what an incredible weekend of sunshine, good food and lots of great time spent with friends and family! the party was amazing, thanks to everyone who made the anticipated arrival of miss sweetpea so special...we feel loved!!!!

lucy and sarah made the owl on the log, it took them 6 hours to sew!!!



wendi, kat, me, tiffany, and jessica

(all these pretty ladies are mama's, jess is expecting her second in august!)



i picked wendi and her two super cute boys up at the airport on friday and then we headed to corvallis to meet up with nonnie and grandpa bill (her mom and dad). they watched the boys for her over the weekend and she took advantage of some wendi time. we got pedicures and then went to happy hour, i indulged on dessert and she had a few spirts! thanks wens for such a fun day you deserved it!!! kat also has two boys, so i think miss sweetpea is going to have to fun wrestling and playing trucks with them, i think they will keep her well rounded!


sarah working hard in the kitchen, her and lucy put on a fabulous meal!


amanda (sister-in-law), me, makenzie (niece), tony (mother-in-law)

tony and paul gave up their house for the weekend, so us ladies could stay up late and be silly...very sweet of them!

the quilt my mom and sisters made for sweetpea!



gwynn and selena watching me open presents from their seats...too cute!


kat wrote down every present i opened, and believe me there was lots! as i looked over the list i couldn't believe how much detail she put into it, she did an awesome job...thanks kat!!!





playing a game....wendi and kat put on the entertainment for the night!

my niece makenzie made me some bibs for the baby, they turned out awesome! she is only 10 and such a talented girl! i think she will make a great cousin/babysitter for miss sweetpea!

brian and easton...two super cute boys!!!


Thanks for all the wonderful and thoughtful gift. I think brian was a little overwhelmed when he saw the pile of presents to load into his truck! We received many very special handmade and useful presents, I also think miss sweetpea might even have a better wardrobe then me! I can't wait for you all to meet her, I think she is loved by many all ready! We feel very fortunate to have such an amazing group of friends and family!


Thanks again!

Brian, Libby, Sweetpea, and Allie

What a wonderful day for your shower! Your family sure knows how to throw a party! Great to see you, even if it was only for a little bit!

The shower looks like it was wonderful. Wish I had been able to be there for all of the fun! I LOVE the quilt that your family made (and the owl and the flags too). So cute!!
PS.~ You continue to look fabulous! Hope you and baby sweetpea are doing fantastic.
