When I walked in, I instantly started to tear up because the details were too much! The sign-in table had the cutest paper dogs that Jan had cut out for guests to leave us a message on. The dining room table was set like a vintage candy bar – complete with pretzels, dog shaped cookies that matched the invitation, a precious cake, and Coke. There were even Coke floats in the kitchen! Lanissa and Holly cut out the adorable “J” lettets that went on each glass. And above the mantel . . . my heart actually skipped a beat! Jennifer found an old Dick and Jane reader page with the words “See, see. Oh, see. See John.” that was framed for his nursery. I still can’t believe it! The “John William” banner below the print was made by Jan. I was still taking all of this in when the guests started to arrive.
I was definitely overwhelmed and feeling very loved! So to Mary Liz, Holly, Jennifer, Jan, Lanissa, and Kristi – I am so honored and grateful to have had a shower so unbelievably cute and special that I will forever treasure.

I love seeing my sweet friends with their precious babies in their bellies...so thank you for posting the beautiful pic of you and your girlfriends. You look fabulous.
