Last Baby Shower

My last shower was this past Saturday. It was thrown by good friends of mine and my mom's: Maureen, Lorrie Ann and Cathy. The group was mostly the "older" women in my life who I've either known for years or who have prayed for me for years. Most of these women prayed for me throughout my sickness and throughout our time trying to conceive. It was such a special time and so much fun!

The food of course was amazing (Lorrie Ann is a chef) and the view was beautiful. Maureen's house sits on a lake and all 21 of us were able to site on her back patio to enjoy brunch. Here are some pictures:



What made the day even more special is that one of my mom's best friends and a woman who is like a mother to me flew in all the way from Oregon to surprise me and come to the shower! It was so wonderful to have her there and it was such a surprise! This is a picture of her, my mom and me:

Here I am with the three hostesses (Cathy, Lorrie Ann, Maureen):
