In May I hosted a baby shower with a couple of ladies for my sister-in-law Nicole. She is having twin boys at the end of July and it was so fun to celebrate her and my new little nephews! She sent me a picture of an invitation she loved that said, "Twice the blessings, twice the love, two babies sent from above" and my creative side took over and ran with it and it became this ...
We had a brunch with mini muffins, yogurt parfaits, sausage bites, and a couple different kinds of quiches. So yummy!
My sweet husband helped me make all of the clouds and cloud garlands until our fingers bled (haha!) ... 250 balloons later! One of our party favors were these adorable airplanes made out of chapstick, a stick of gum, 2 lifesaver mints, and a clear hair elastic! They turned out so cute!
Nicole's best friend Claire was in charge of the games ... a fun guess how many gum balls are in the baby bottle and guess the nursery rhyme! We also had the guest of honor choose the winner for the diaper raffle for a $60 gift card to the Village!
My grandma came into town for the shower weekend and it was so fun to see her!
After food and games Nicole opened her gifts. So many teeny newborn things! You forget how small they are ...
We also had all of the guests sign 2 baby versions of the Dr. Suess book, "Oh the Places You'll Go", with a note to each baby inside ...
Claire had these cute hot air balloon cookies made for party favors too!
Look who showed up at the end the of shower ... the cutest guest of all! ;)
The beautiful soon-to-be mom to twins and her nieces!
With her best friend, Claire!
With her mom and mother-in-law!
With Grandma Sue!
It was a special day to celebrate our beautiful sister-in-law! We can't wait to meet our new nephews in a little over a month!!
