Baby Shower and a Birthday!

Last weekend we had a few fun things going on. Saturday day was my first baby shower thrown by Stephanie and Stacie for Ryan's side of the family. It was the best shower ever! They had pregnant pictures of me everywhere, flowers and balloons. They had some good lunch with cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries and homemade sugar cookies for dessert. We played a fun guessing game with the measurement of my belly and opened presents. I got so much awesome stuff! I was so excited I organized it all in my nursery first thing when I got home, I almost feel like I don't need anything else! It was SO great. Thank you everyone for your cute gifts and support!

After the shower was our surprise birthday party for Ryan's Grandma Goodrich. She thought she was going to some work party with Grandpa, but little did she know, her whole family was waiting for her at a camp site up mill creek canyon. She was pretty surprised and excited to see us all. We had some dinner and roasted marshmallows then headed back to her house to watch a family DVD, give her a family scrapbook, and eat cake and ice cream. I heard her say like three different times "This is the best Birthday ever!" So, I'm thinking it was a success!

I'm so happy you said the games you guys played, because i promise the measuring was the exact thing i was going to do, hahaha, so i'll just have to think of something a little more creative:). The shower looked like a blast. Can't wait for next week!!!!

Good times! I am sad I missed out on the shower but we will send you something for sure, just as soon as we know what you have. Oh and I talked to grandma on her birthday and she told me all about the surprise, she loved it.
