Best. Baby Shower. Ever

That's what I have to say about last weekend's festivities. My parents' house was transformed into a summer bbq heaven and everything was so perfect - the weather, the company, the atmosphere - that my mind grasped at every detail and scene, hungrily filing them away like a studious squirrel preparing for winter. I can't believe how wonderful the weekend was. It was so great it was painful. I won't lie, I cried as we pulled out of the driveway, and that outpouring of emotion can't be blamed on pregnancy hormones. Not entirely, anyway. I'm pretty sure I would have reacted the same way, bun in the oven or not.

Speaking of a bun in the oven, my sister made Z and I these fun aprons for the event. We forgot to put them on until later into the day, but Christine took some great pictures of them and of the entire day.

I highly recommend my sisters and Orcastrated Events for any of your event planning needs! These ladies know their stuff and they make every gathering special, with style. Any style I have, is

due in part to them.

I'm so excited to have Jooner not only so Z and I can start our family and have a little, as a friend likes to say, Jo-Zach running around, but also so that he can become part of and know the two families whose blood runs through his veins. I know he'll be a great addition to both families, and I just know that he's going to be some sort of awesome because he's going to be our Jooner.

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it! It was truly a magical event!
