Sunday March 29th--Family/Friend Shower-Our house

On Sunday March 29th my sisters put together a great shower for family and a few friends. It was great to food and great to see all the family and friends! Thanks to everyone for coming! I received many great gifts. Everyone was so generous and I can't wait to put all the adorable clothes on Robbie. We got some great books and toys and can't wait to read and play with all of them with Robbie! Thanks to everyone who also brought the delicious food. My aunt brough one of my favs.....Pot Stickers...YUMMY!!!
Although one of the most important women in my life was not there, my sisters brought her memory and spirit to the party. I know you are always with me mom but sure wish you could have been there to enjoy the festivities. My sisters gave me a wonderful gift in memory of mom. Patty gave me items that Mom had last given to Reece. Reece was so thoughtful in sharing these things with our baby so he can carry Grandma Mary's spirit and love with him always. They also gave a few puzzles and books and stuffed animals mom had last given the grandkids.
I want to Thank Dad for coming as well!! It really meant a lot that you were there.
