What a lovely time at my cousin's baby shower! Roseann and Jamie (and their loving dog, Serendipity) are expecting. They do not know what gender the tiny gift from God will be yet! They faked many out by their list of 'wants' --some being blue and boyish and others sporting the green-yellow theme. However, when we all showed up, there was a good mix of pink and blue and all baby colors!
Marian, Lexi, and Lainie put together a wonderful get-together from the decorations, to the games, to the delicious food and inviting atmosphere!
It's always a joy to see old friends, neighbors, and family members who you do not get a chance to see very often. A few of the staples were missing from the group, which was a disappointment, like Auntie Annette and the Yambor gang....
This was a nice gathering, none the less. Time scooted by fast. No one seemed to be clock watching. The games were fun....the food tasty including the beautiful baby cake....and Roseann and Jamie received a boat load of wonderful gifts from the party-goers ranging from the always needed diapers to onesies, to cute clothing, to the homemade afghan my sister made to the wreath I made them to Jamie's favorite gift: Baby Butt Paste!
Of course, Mom had to win one of the prizes! You had to guess how many mints were in the baby bottle, and of course, Mom was only 2 away without going over! Ok, we were all pretty lucky....my sister and I got runner-up prizes for the baby jumble game (TV Tommy would be so proud!)...
God placed me in the midst of a great family tree...and hopefully, Roseann and Jamie's new little bundle of joy will feel the same way!
