Garden baby shower..
for Tiff and baby Brecklyn!..
i love our showers. each one seems more and more extravagant..
i love my friends. they are beautiful, talented, inspiring, and hilarious!
i cant wait to meet baby Brecklyn. I cant wait to see my first best friend from the 6th grade become a mom. there is something deeply spiritual about watching your close friends change into mommys.

the gift table.. we are so formal.. ha ha. all 8 of us.

ah yes. typical ariel. .. very serious

one of my favorites. me and morg look really excited. and kess just looks embarrassed of us.

with the cute mommy to be! i sure wish i looked as good as Tiff during my pregnancy.

we usually have to take 4 bad ones to get a good one. sometimes i really dont know what we laugh about. our conversations consist of a few muttered words... then 10 minutes of laughing.

the talented mrs bradshaw handled decor. she amazes me. im jealous of her abilities!

my main man. he was so wide awake watching all the girls! i love him. he sure loves spending time with them and eating up all the attention. but he missed his friend Serena B.

spending time with my friends came just in time this weekend. i needed some good laughs. some comfort (which i always get from them). and some good food!

i remember being a scared teenager who hated going to girls camp because i was scared to be away from home. . . but i always knew that if i had my friends with me i would be ok. . .. and now days its the same feeling. a week of feeling overwhelmed, under accomplished, and slightly lonely.... was capped with a few good laughs near my friends of 12+ years.

i have so much to be grateful for. it felt almost overwhelming watching my friends hold my son. i am so lucky to have them, and so is Asher. ....

i guess in a few months we will be throwing one of these for Alicia! i cant wait. .. i know everyone including her.. wants a girl.. BUT im not going to lie.. im crossing my fingers for a playmate for Asher Liam!
