Rachel's Baby Shower

A couple Sundays ago, Maureen and Jessica hosted the most adorable shower for Rachel and baby Raleigh. The theme was woodland creatures, and they did an amazing job with the food, decor, everything! They had prepared four different types of soup, and then carb loaded us with bread bowls and all sorts of crackers…delicious.

toppers…I mean, really? How cute!

For dessert, we had a bunch of different pies. I tried a new recipe, salted caramel pie with a graham cracker crust, and I think it was a hit!

After feasting, we sat down to play a game and open presents. The game was a word scramble of different children's books. Erica and Colleen (who knew she was so into kid's books?) tied for first and had only missed one!

more cute decor and presents!

Little Raleigh sure got spoiled. Lots of fun gifts as well as a book from each of us to start his own little library.

Congrats, Rachel, and can't wait for sweet baby Raleigh to arrive. You're gonna make an awesome mom!
