Baby Shower!!

This post is sending out mad love to my sister-in-law, Clare, who threw me an amazing baby shower on Saturday!  Clare has always been one for throwing a good party but she showed some new skills with the baby shower, making it truly a day to remember.  There were games, amazing food and some delish homemade delights.  She was even thoughtful enough to incorporate my friends from back-home with the game 'born in the USA' where I had to match the name with the baby photo.  Too bad I didn't even recognise my own baby photo!

Here are some highlights from the day:

Boo's Baby shower!!  How cute!

Not a proper baby shower unless you make the guests chug vodka from a baby bottle...

...and then make the boys replenish from a hard day on the golf course in the same way!

In addition to all the fun organised by Clare, baby boo also got some awesome gifts!  I honestly feel like we are so lucky to have such fantastic friends and family.  As soon as we got home I went straight to work on setting up the nursery with the new gear:

Kelly gave boo a bouquet of 'flowers' made of onesies, muslin cloths, socks and mittens!  I love it so much I don't want to take it apart!

The mobile is from Clare and fits in the nursery perfectly!!

In addition to the photos above, baby boo got loads of other stuff.  Too much to name in fact but I would like to send a big THANK YOU to everyone who came and made the day so special.  It's so hard to be away from my friends and family in the US and to have such a lovely group of people around us makes everything so much easier.  Boo certainly is one lucky little dude.
