Mama G...soon to be Nana G threw us a Baby Shower!

Memorial Day weekend we traveled back home to my mom's house...actually her former house, but that' another blog posting...and had our family baby shower! It was beautiful :o) We got to see lots of family and little miss Callyann got lots of wonderful gifts. She is going to be soooooo spoiled!!! One of the best surprises was our best friends/family came all the way out from California to be there with us. The Bairds just had a baby girl a few months ago (Katie), so we got to hold her and cuddle her...and even change a poopy diaper...we are READY!

The baby shower was a hoot! We played lots of games, one of which you couldn't say the word "baby"...you had necklaces to wear that got taken away when you said the magic word...whoever heard you say it, got to keep your necklace and whoever had the most necklaces in the end, won! Needless to say, it got ruthless...we are one competitive family!

The food was so yummy...and we ate outside under a beautifully decorated tent (thanks boys for helping us out :o). Some of my favorite dishes were my aunt's brownies with frosting and thin mint crumbles on top...and my sister's buffalo chicken dip...I know, I know...completely different ends of the spectrum, but what can I say? I'M PREGNANT!

By the way, Jess...you will be pleased to know that Callyann has been practicing everyday..."Favorite Auntie Jessa!"

Thank you to all who made the special trip to share in our joy...and thank you again for your generosity and all the cute stuff Callyann received. We truly appreciate it...but most of all, we are just thankful that she has such a loving family who we know will guide her and support her through all her journeys in life!
