andersons baby shower

i spent a wonderful weekend "in town" (as avery calls it) with my family and had the best 'girl' days with my mom doing all the fun girl things she knows we love to do.  we hit downtown homewood, shopped, ate, went to 2 bakeries (and left with treats from both), found a cute consignment shop, went to toy stores, shopped and ate a little more...and we had the best time! we also got some much needed play time with some dearly missed friends. 

to close out the weekend, and the very reason i went, some of my very best friends insisted that anderson could not be born into this world wearing pink...and to be quite honest, he was coming close because i have not done much boy shopping.  the clothes just aren't as cute, but that's another post.
no doubt the world looks different in blue ~ and we were so very blessed by the thoughtfulness and generosity of everyone who came to celebrate anderson.  i don't know a group of people who "know me" better than these girls and it showed in every little detail. the only thing that would have made it better was if my sister stacie could have been in town too!
like that painting?  we did too!  thanks abby!



jennifer latham made this amazing quilt and the picture just does not do it justice

and, i wish i could show you all of the scrapbook allen's aunt made for me.  it is gorgeous...and 100% complete.  all i have to do is take pictures to fill in the pages.  she's so creative and talented!  i'm a lucky girl!
