WI baby shower

While we were back for Brian and Angie's wedding, Michelle's family decided to throw her a baby shower. It's pretty early for a shower since she isn't due until February 23rd, but this will be our last visit to WI before then, so it was good timing.

Chris and Vân were able to drive down from Minneapolis Saturday night so we were able to catch up with them that night. Sunday morning started off early with a breakfast. Guests were over early since they were still in town from Brian and Angie's wedding. Mark made biscuits and gravy and Michelle and Carley's moms cooked frittatas. My mom brought over fruit, cookies, and cupcakes.

Someone set up some games such as melted candy bars in diapers. I didn't even want to look so I didn't play; Laura took first place! It was so nice to be able to see everybody again since we don't get back too often and when we do it's usually limited to immediate family. My Uncle David and Aunt Gerry were able to make it as well as our friends Chris and Vân.




There were all sorts of gifts from everybody, too many for me to list here. We are so thankful to everybody just for being able to come and visit, that alone is really such a great gift since we don't get back to WI very often. Here's a picture that shows everything that we got all together.
