Baby Shower ~ July 31, 2010

John and I had a baby shower/ going away party on July 31, 2010 at my parents' house prior to taking off for our road trip to the bay area. It was low-key (the way we like it) with BBQ and games for the kids and open to everyone we know in the area. It was a lot of fun and I am grateful for both sets of our parents and my sisters for helping throw us the shower. Not to mention our parents putting us up and feeding us for the month of July while we were in transition from Providence, RI to Sunnyvale, CA. Here are some pictures from the day below...

Table for onesies and paint for guests to make us a onesie for the baby to wear. Thanks for the idea Aunt Kat! It was a big hit at the shower.

All the painted onesies hanging on a line hanging to dry.

Cake for the shower was so cute...and tasty!!
