~JUST A PARTY ANIMAL..

Just kidding!

I not only love babies..but I love baby showers..
One was given for my granddaughter, Rachel, so..yep..going to share a few pictures with you.
Okay?
:)
There were scones and clotted cream.
Yummy finger sandwiches of all kinds...over on the top side you can see the drink station.
Ice tea, cucumber water..etc. etc.

one of the tables of goodies..
(part of the table is missing!)

The candy table with little bags and ribbons for the guests to take home a bag of candy..


Another luncheon table..
And there were several more tables set up with tea sets.  Each with a different kind of tea.

The problem was,  I forgot my camera..and one of the guests sent these photo's to my daughter in law who could not be there and she sent these to me.  
Otherwise there would have been NONE!
Zero!
I was so disappointed that I didn't bring my camera..
Ah well...another day in the life of me.  :)

In short..it was lovely.  On the other side of the table were two of the most beautiful cakes..also a pound cake with two types of cream..I only remember one was lemon.  

All of what you see was made by my family.  Most was baked by my daughter Mary.  She and my granddaughter's best friend, gave the shower.
I wish I had more pictures..

  I'm just so disgustedly proud!

Hugs,
Mona

  2. Wow! What a lovely shower! I'm so glad you went and had a good time. Thanks for sharing the pictures you did have. I'm always forgetting my camera too. I have it when there's nothing to take, but a party... Well, it's usually home.

  7. they did a beautiful job! It looks all so professional! I always forget my camera too but I hate the pressure of taking photos anyway so its OK, someone always takes photos and just as you managed to get a hold of some I usually do as well, problem is I am usually so wrapped up in whats going on taking photos is the last thing on my mind, lol,,

  18. What a beautiful baby shower. Mary & her helpers did a wonderful job in creating all the the amazing food & displaying it. Your Granddaughter must have been thrilled to see how much effort was put into creating this baby shower for her. I attended & given many baby showers over the years, but none as impressive as this. Even though you forgot your camera, at least you were sent some great pictures to share & remember the event. If you enjoyed yourself & had a good time that's the important thing. Another Great Grandbaby to welcome to the family - how exciting. Bet you can't wait to meet that little one. You are so blessed to have such a large family Mona.

  20. You guys know how throw a shindig and the food looks fabulous! So pretty and inviting. I hope the guest of honor had a good time and received many cute gifts for that new baby! Does your phone take pics? I've been using mine more lately since it's smaller than my camera. Have a good weekend! Thanks for sharing these fun shots! (Makes me hungry!)
