Celebrate


Last weekend was a weekend of celebration. 


My cousin and her fiancé traveled all the way from Seattle to make plans for their September wedding in Nashville. 




Her Mom and Dad also drove up from Florida to partake in the fun. This was the first time we've all been together since everyone announced their news (our arrival of Baby H and my cousin getting engaged on Christmas Day). 


With Seattle located on the other side of the world (or so it seems) it would be hard for both my cousin and myself to travel to each others' showers. Never one to pass up an opportunity to party, we decided to have a little shower of our own. Thanks to my Aunt, and Mom and Nana (who were unable to attend...but made up for their absence in gifts) for pulling everything together. 


Since my cousin and her fiancé would be flying back to Seattle, we had to limit our gifts to TSA approved items only (unfortunately, Caleb's suggestion of a rifle would have to wait). After borrowing an extra suitcase, they managed to get their goodies safely home.





Baby H's gifts were not as limited since we would not be transporting them (no rifle for us either though, sorry Caleb). After opening the first few gifts, I started to notice a theme. Maybe we should have called this the "Stuff the Baby Closet" shower.




A cute little Adidas hat. Just like Daddy wears.
  


I never thought hangers could be so cute!
  




Love the bottom!
  


Could this be a new gun?
  



Very Nashville appropriate! Love it. Thanks Mom!
 



You mean I have to hang this stuff up??!
 


Could this be a gun?
   


Baby H will be ready for Santa's visit this year.


Of course Bella was on hand to lend some assistance and, as always, look cute.






Caleb and I had a great time showing off our favorite things in Nashville. We can't wait until the September wedding (and we'll have a new favorite thing to show off)!








P.S. I apologize for the sub par pictures. My photographer was a little busy celebrating!

  1. Thanks for including the pictures of your "mini shower". Wish I could have been there but am looking forward to your baby shower here in March. Bryan says after this shower Caleb will need to enlarge the closet in the nursery! Maybe I should go shopping for more hangers?? Was Bella wondering why she didn't get anything? See you soon!
