Weekending: baby shower edition

Monday, October 3, 2016

This weekend I hosted a baby shower for my cousin who is due with a baby girl in early November. She is Garrett's first cousin and I am so thankful to have married into such a great family with cousins that are more like sisters. It was such a sweet time with lots of family, food, and showering the mommma-to-be with all things pink!

On the menu we had chicken salad cups, blueberry and banana chocolate chip muffins, fruit skewers, and three different types of quiche. We also had cake pops that Garrett and I made. For drinks we had mimosas, lemonade, and water. I sure was wishing I could sip on a mimosa! 

I made the cutest diaper cake for the center of the food table with 120 diapers she can use for baby as well as shampoos and soaps, baby spoons, lots of rattles and toys. A cute and practical baby gift that presents so well. For favors everyone got to take home a bottle of pink OPI nail polish!

 My 17 week bump!
