Showered with Love

Sunday, March 19, 2011 was the day I had my first baby shower!  My best friend, Natasha, hosted a Tea Party Brunch themed shower.   It was held at her in-law's house in Oregon City.  I had a great group of women at my shower; friends from college, new friends, family friends, and family.  My grandma was even able to attend the shower through google video chat!  It was very special to be able to have her "there".  My dad and brother set up their computer next to my grandma's bed and she watched the entire time, smiling.

Natasha made some great food!  We had quiche, some crustless ofcourse! We also had fruit, and a potato casserole.  For dessert we had mini cheesecakes.  To drink we had tea and coffee.

Kelly put together some fun games of tasting baby food.  I'm surprised babies like that stuff since it looks so gross!  My friends and family also wrote notes to Caitlyn that were put into a book.   And for most of the time I opened presents and more presents!  Wow, I was so blessed with so many wonderful things for Caitlyn.  I even got gifts from people that weren't able to attend the shower.
