Shower # 4... Last shower!

Our last shower was thrown by our wonderful neighbors, Ted and Cathy Colburn. Two years ago we threw them a shower and Ted and Cathy were not going to let their chance go by for showering us. The house was so beautifully decorated for our very nice couples shower. Cathy had pictures up of both Robby and I when we were babies and it was so much fun to try and guess what our little one will look like!

For dinner: Cathy and Ted served mouth watering beef and pork tenderloin that was cooked to perfection with homemade horseradish sauce and mustard's. We had brochette, rice and apples with toffee apple dip. For dessert we had Cathy's famous toffee bars and apple bars.
Gifts: We got so many wonderful gifts from our friends and family at this shower, including the gift I have been waiting for... my monkey pack and play!! Wow who would have known the day would come when I would get so excited about a pack and play? Some of the other gifts that we got were our diaper changing station, Christmas outfit, bucket of goodies, bedding, stuffed animals, Diaper Gene, toys, diapers and wipes that I think will last a whole year but will probably only last a month and so much more! Robby and I could hardly believe how much we got. Again we were reminded of how lucky we are to have such wonderful family and friends.

Games Played: Instead of playing a game our host sent a little card for all the guest to write down some advice for Robby and I as new parents. We had many laughs while reading all the thoughtful and comical advice!
At the end of the night Cathy read me her advice while using fun props while Ted played a funny video of "Dad's Life" while dancing and making us all laugh. I really don't think we could have been luckier to have such great neighbors:).

Thank you all!
