yesterday my aunt was in town because she was throwing a baby shower for a friend of ours and it turned out a-ma-zing! there was delicious food and a dessert table and instead of games you could make a headband for the baby! I snapped some photos of the finish product of a few of our stations and decorations. welcome miss ava clare! { free printable from weddingchicks.com. click here. } { A is for Ava printable here. } { sips and sweets banners here. }

as 2013 draws to a close I have been reminiscing on this years adventures and highlights. One of those was my aunts wedding and organizing her bridal shower. It was a very fun project that I got to work on with a few very talented other ladies to make it a success. Here are some photos I took documenting that day.
