Saturday was my sister's baby shower! It was "Tropical Paradise"
We had such a fun time! The food was great- we had: a fruit tray of tropical fruits and fruit dip, Fruit punch with Sprite and frozen berries, spinach dip with a rye bread bowl, taco salad (not tropical was still was very good!) and I made the cake and cupcakes! The cake was a beach scene with crushed graham crackers as the sand! I iced little binki's and swim trunks on teddy grahams and put them with Airhead towels, life saver floats, sweet tart star fish, sweedish fish, tropical flower suckers that I popped off the stems and lots of icing!! We played a game called "hello, My name is..." where you write down on name tags a baby item, such as bottle, diapers, binki, blanket etc...and that is the guests new name. Anyone calling the other person by their real name loses their bracelet to that person: the person with the most bracelets at the end wins! It's a take off the "can't say baby or you lose your clothes pin" game. It was really hard to not call someone by their real name! :P Sarah got lots of wonderful gifts such as: pack and play, glider, changing table with mat and mat cover, diapers, wipies, clothes, bibs, wash cloths, towels, soap, lotion, diaper bag, baby bed, baby bedding (from babybeddingzone.com!) a baby bed mattress, stroller, swing, baby wedge for sleeping, carseat, bottles...the only big thing she needs is a monitor and bottle warmer! The other odds and ends things she can just pick up before the baby arrives. Her name is Lillian (Lillie) Gabrielle Matthews!
