Baby A's Fall Festival

Sometimes you just luck out with the friends in your life. I have some of the greatest girlfriends here in Georgia that really make me feel at home.  Moving here after college wasn't easy, but the gift of great friends helped me settle in so well. They've been there through so many of my life changes and Baby A is no exception! In October they threw me a beautiful shower and I wanted to give them a little love shout-out, but also show some of the fun pics from the fall festival. So thank you very much to everyone helped out in pulling this together! And thanks to my girlfriends for being so wonderful all the time!

First, they knew a party for Paige is not really a party if there is no food.  It was all delicious:



Homemade cupcakes made by the best baker around!
Chocolate with Buttercream Frosting
Chai with Buttercream Frosting
Pumpkin with Maple Cream Cheese Frosting

This was a dangerously delicious apple dip:
 And of course Hot Apple Cider.

Then there were the activities:
"Write a note of encouragement or advice for Paige!"
 These were so special to read afterwards.
Since we don't know if Baby A is a he or she, we did some trivia to try to narrow it down.  I still have no idea.

We had a photo booth set up for people to take their own pictures and write some notes on chalk boards.  I haven't seen these yet...but I know they'll be interesting to say the least.  I'll post those soon! 

And we can't neglect all of the other autumnal details of the party:

Centerpieces on the tables:

Cute lil punkin:

And finally, the shower of gifts!


"Thanks Mom for the womb and board!"  
You're welcome! (thanks, Jenica, for the shirt!)
