On Saturday, February 16th, my friends Alicia and Leslie threw a beautiful baby shower for me here in Indianapolis. The shower was in one of the banquet rooms at 14 West in downtown Indy. Everything was perfect. So many of my friends here in Indianapolis were able to come, and my mom also made the trip from Toledo for the weekend. The food was amazing, we had a couple of different types of salads, a mashed potato bar, calamari, and the famous 14 West pretzel rolls. Then there were cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, and candy for dessert. We were truly spoiled!
Each table table was supplied with paper, scissors and other accessories for people to decorate scrap book pages. At the end of the shower, all of the pages were put into a scrap book for me. Now all I have to do is add pictures to the pages. This was such a great idea, and the pages are adorable! Everyone brought such generous gifts, I can't wait for Julia to be able to use everything! The most impressive part was the three-tiered diaper cake that Alicia made, now that takes talent!
Thanks everyone for a wonderful shower, I can't wait for you all to meet baby Julia!
