Baby Shower!

Braden and I want to thank everyone who came to our baby shower last weekend! We felt so loved and so blessed and I (Amanda) had a great time seeing so many friends and family! It was such a beautiful day, perfect weather for an outdoor shower which was nice since we probably would have been crammed in my parents living room! We didnt expect to be showered with so many people coming to celebrate with us and it was overwhelming how loved we felt. Braden was happy to be out that day with his friend Kyle wake surfing while I got to spend girly time talking babies and stuff with the women! I also want to thank my mom for spending so much time making her yard and home so welcoming and beautiful, we all certainly enjoyed it. My mom put so much time and effort into this past weekend for us and I appreciate her so much. I am so happy that she will be my sons grandma! My cousin Lily was there and took lots of pics, so as soon as I get them I will post for those who couldn't make it! Lily also made the invitations and the thank you cards which were beautiful, THANKS Lily! Again, thank you to everyone for coming and helping us prepare to welcome our baby boy soon!

PS- believe it or not, we actually were able to pack all the stuff back except for 2 larger items that my cousin Jacob and Sabrina will bring back in their car next week! Good thing we brought those 2 empty large suitcases!
