Julie was my photographer... JULIE... I laughed SO HARD when I looked through the pictures you took. WOW... some weird faces made tonight! All those weird faces... MINE! :-)
My good friend, Robin, prayed the sweetest prayer about/for Abel. It blessed my heart! Thank you Robin.
Africa is very dear to Robin's heart as well... she has been there and has some cool decorations! She made this table look very festive!
I have too many pictures to share so I am just gonna post a few :-)
Here it goes...
My friend, Jocelyn sat right next to me and she said "I don't want to be in every single picture... because I know they are going on your blog". I'm just putting this one Jocelyn and YES... you are in a TON OF THE PICS (but they look funny of both of us :-) I just want to send a little HELLO to Jocelyn's friend Meg. Jocelyn told me she has a friend that reads my blog ... HEY MEG! We are friends on facebook too... fun stuff! haha HEY MEG! (have I said that already?)
OK... so this is the story of the night... My friend, Emily, had a baby on Feb. 1. She came tonight with her precious baby Cooper. Anyway, when Emily had her baby (just 11 days ago), I went to see her in the hospital. I was telling her that when I had Avery and Aidan, one of my favorite things was the mesh panties. YES, I said it "MESH PANTIES". I had c-sections with all three babies. After I had Avery, I called the hospital and said "Can I get another pair?" and the nurse said "They are $18" and I said "Never mind!". Then when I had Addison... NO MESH PANTIES! ?! WHAT??? I was so sad about that. Well, in my gift tonight... my buddy Emily brought me YES... YOU GUESSED IT ... MESH PANTIES from her hospital stay. UN-USED! I hope she doesn't get billed for those (because 7 years ago they were $18 ... now they are probably ... who knows!)
These things STRETCH OUT!
These things STRETCH OUT!
My buddy Emily... she keeps me laughing!

I don't even understand the need for mesh panties...and, I'm kind of ok with that :)
The baby shower looks beautiful! How fun!
Looks like a great time with great friends and great gifts!
You are almost leaving for Addis Ababa!!! Ahh!
SO MUCH FUN.....I am laughing about the mesh panties. Are you going to where them the day you pick up Abel??!! Just kidding.
Love,

Oh how I loved my mesh panties. I will admit it...I kept mine for much longer that I should :embarassed: I washed them until they fell apart. :) HA!
Okay...I am so glad there is a "mesh panties society" because I thought I was the only one who loved those things! My husband called them my "Spiderman panties"...is that too much info?!
So excited for you to meet little Abel! What a wonderful gift!
