One Shower Down...

My Sister is having her first baby in a few weeks and I got the pleasure of helping throw her a shower. I have been brainstorming ideas since I found out and non-stop working on the decorations since December. I got a lot of inspiration from the Hostess with the Mostest blog and then just ran with it. Because so many people want to support my sister and her husband, I get to do two showers! It has been so much fun. And like my title says... one shower down...and more to come! Linda these pictures are for you...thank you for all your help!!!!! Everybody loved it. Wish you could have seen it in person...enjoy new little Vann! Everyone else, I hope you like the pics too.

I made up 5 different versions (to help my sanity in making 80) of ivitations. This style was one of my faves
The oh so yummy Cake Pops. Who would have thought cake mix, frosting, and chocolate could get any better!!! So perfect and Moist


One of the ladies helping makes to die for cup cakes. Each time she makes them she comes up with different ways of decorating them. Just too cute!

These little frames worked perfect to label the food! IKEA baby for only 99 cents!

The wisdom tree...I should have taken a picture of it after the shower. It was covered with tags of child advice.

All I can say is "WOW" It turned out so perfect. I am sure you learned things on this one that you will use again. Great job and I am glad it turned out so wonderful for Tracy. Now get ready for #2. This will show I am Kandis but it is really me (Linda)
