a pretty pink shower

The day is nearly here for me to hold my first niece. I can hardly wait for Madelyn Grace to arrive. In anticapation, a couple close friends and I threw together a celebration for my sister.

I have been dreaming of this day for a while. Here was the inspiration behind the shower. It turned out pretty perfect. The goal was to create a beautiful environment to converse with dear friends and family, soaking in the moments before a precious baby girl enters the world. That's exactly what we did.

My sister recently moved. We decided to host the shower in her new home doubling the baby shower as a house warming party as well. Heavy horderves were served on the buffet table in the formal dining room from silver platters. We sipped on pink fruit punch while catching up on the latest news with friends. 

After opening presents, we brought out the ribbons and lace to craft a few bows and headbands.

It was a perfect day to celebrate a dearly loved baby girl. Madelyn Grace is blessed to have such amazing parents like Sean & Lana. Now I'm ready to kiss this little girl and share motherhood with my sister.
