Joy's baby shower

Our girls weekend started out with Joy's baby shower last Saturday at Nonnie's Pizza in Woodridge, IL. Joy was absolutely glowing (she couldn't get any cuter, could she?) Pregnancy definitely suits her well.

About 35 people came out to celebrate with us. To start we had each guest decorate a plain white bib using fabric markers and stencils. We ate great food, played a few of the required baby shower games for prizes (Celebrity Baby Name quiz and Baby Word scramble). And then Joy chose her favorite bib and the person who made it won the final prize give-away.

I think everyone had a great time - and Joy left Nonnie's with THREE carloads of baby essentials. The cutest personalized onesie, handmade blankets, baby booties, the newest and best baby gear, etc. Joy and baby Brogan are all set! Now we just have to wait for him to make his debut!
