Ahoy Matey Shower

As me and the girls were sitting around brainstorming ideas for this shower it seemed to be going nowhere. Maybe we shoule just do colors. Not really a theme. That's kinda how her room is decorated anyway.

Then it hit us.

Like a ton of bricks!

A sailboat theme!

Blues & Reds & Starfish & Sailboats!

AHOY!

Our main inspiration is from the photos of the

Proud Parents to be below.

These crazy kids had Team O (for Overton) shirts made for a canoe trip one year.

His said Captain on the front and hers, First Mate.

I decided to use a photo from her recent Maternity shoot I did as the guest book.

And I also FINALLY got to make these adorable Pom Poms I've been dying to make
(via Martha Stewart)!
Don't they just SCREAM party! I love them.
So festive.

Everything on this cake is edible.

EVERYTHING!

Even that plastic looking baby.

Honestly it kinda freaks me out.

A baby being edible.

But man that cake is gorgeous!

See!? Would YOU feel right eating that baby!?

These tees were made by our friend Katie. Some were iron ons and some she sowed
(is that the right word)! How cute is that guitar!

I had to throw in this shot of sweet Annabelle.

She's not feeling the baby eating either.

Seriously. I'm dying to take this little girls pictures!

One Proud Mama-To-Be

You think it's hard to take pictures of a group of kids?

Try a LARGE group of ladies!

Seriously, when we all get together it's pretty much constant chatter & laughter.

I Love You All!

Exhibit A:

Where's Jenn? I can't see Jenn?

Emily, what are you doing to Baby Ethan?

Amanda, are you still eating?

At least Michelle's ready.

Exhibit B:

Still can't see Jenn.

Teesha? Is that you peeping in there?

Now Michelle's gone and Katie & Emily are just so HAPPY to be there.

Exhibit C:

Carrie. Why are you still singing?

Amber, Carrie's singing is not THAT funny.

Tina. Smile!

Michelle's still gone but there's Jenn!

Exhibit D:

FINALLY!

I think we got everyone In

And everyone Looking!

Can't wait to meet you Baby Ethan.

You guys will be Amazing, Loving parents.

He's one lucky little guy.

Pickles & Ice Cream Shower

Last weekend we had a fabulous shower

for a dear friend

Carol.

She's adding a new baby girl to our mix!

Baby Macy

{love that name}

Me & the girls brainstormed ideas for the shower.

First it was just gonna be an

Ice Cream Sundae Shower

Then We thought

Pickles & Ice Cream!

Brilliant!

Above is the adorable invite *ahemthatimadeahem*

Below is probably my favorite thing from the shower!

I designed these little onesies on the computer and printed them on

Iron On transfer paper

Iron them on, hang by cutsie ribbon & voila!

A cute decoration AND she can actually use them!

Close up of my favositest little onesie for my favoritest new little girl!

The Sundae Buffet in all it's glory.

Mmmmmm I'm getting hungry just looking at it!

In the back you can see the Sundae Glasses.

We gave those out as favors *they're from the Dollar Tree*

and attached a cute little saying to the bottom

with adorable ribbon of course.

In the very back is a hand painted canvas *by the oh so talented Julie*

that we all signed and wrote well wishes on.

Just wanted to make sure I made you good and hungry...

Here's where the pickles come in.

Jamie brought her mother's homemade pickles to go with the cravings above!

Really, who doesn't like pickles!?

Pink Carnations stuffed in ice cream cones.

Another hand painted canvas by the talented Julie.

Seriously, she needs to go into business doing this stuff!

If she had a blog I'd totally link to her.

I've got her working on something for my bedroom as we speak!

Had to throw in a shot of this adorable little gal and her mama!

I love a good chunk baby and she fits the bill.

Group Shot
Can't wait to meet you Baby Macy!!
Brynn has lots planned for the 2 of you.
