Showered!


Our Shower was May 30th. We were really honored that so many of our loved ones made it. There were 45 people total. I know I felt torn trying to do my rounds and talk a little bit to everyone. People seemed to pick spots throughout the house and outside which made our jobs difficult! Such is life!

We are pleased to report that both of our newest baby friends were in attendance. That was a thrill! Jack and his parents Dana and Mike came all the way from Dover, New Hampshire for the occasion. After hanging out with little Kaitlyn, I was shocked how big my buddy Jack has gotten. His hands are huge in comparison! They were a huge hit!


Here is my friend Kaitlyn who napped while the ladies made sandwiches.

Here is Jack. Mommy (Miss Dana) thought it would be funny to put the bows on my head.

Jack looked so handsome... and he even was coordinated with my shower dress!

We received a number of great gifts. We are really thankful to our family and friends for their generosity! It was quite overwhelming opening all of the presents. Allison kept track of the presents, so we could write thank you notes. Kimmy and Pam organized the presents after they were opened. In addition, Katherine and Miss Kim handed us the presents. Trust me, that wasn't an easy job! Some of those suckers were quite heavy!

Here we are reading a card.

Here we are smiling for a photo op.
And of course some quirky comment was made that resulted in this face.

We would like to thank my mom, Allison, Miss Kim, Katherine and Kimmy for putting together such a great day for us. We appreciate all of your baking and your attention to the fine details. A special thank you goes to my cousin Lisa who arrived early and quickly got to work making sandwiches! THANKS! Additionally, we thank Miss Dana for helping put together cookie trays and Jeff for putting up the tent... IN THE DARK the night before. We are grateful to have a time to visit with those who attended the shower. We look forward to spending more time with you (and those of you who were unable to make it) at the wedding.
