My 'lil Sister's Baby Shower

On Saturday we had a baby shower for my sister, Megan.

On my last post I shared a .jpeg file for a Advice, Predictions & Wishes baby book.  Here is a picture of my completed book.  You can see I used my shower invitation for inspiration and changed some of the wording.  The pictures are all from my sister's collection; she is a lovely natural light photographer.  The apple is because she is a teacher.  She has 2 St. Bernards!  and I used a pic from a special camping spot her and her husband will always remember.  The flowers and toile helped support our french country decor.

Here are some of the highlights from our decorations, including cookie lollypop favors my mom made!  I love useful favors...  Unfortunately the hall we rented had horrible red gothic curtains...yuck but funny considering my mom has close to the same ones in her family room and my sister hates them!  Mom swears they are for keeping out the sun's glare and not a homage to her new favorite genre of book, tv and movie...vampire-mania!  They looked quite out of place at a baby shower but what can you do-???
