Baby Shower Round 2

Hello, friends! We are putting the final touches on getting ready for baby Benson. We can't wait! Last weekend our wonderful neighbors hosted a couples baby shower for us. We had such a blast, and they went to a ton of work to make this shower so special for us! Take a look!


There was a cute little area for people to sign in.



I had everyone sign in by decorating a block and guessing the gender.



The backyard was set up for some fun, too. It worked out well since we had 45 people there for a while!



We played one fun game of guessing the baby items hidden in each bag that started with the letter on the outside of the bag.



Jenny also set up some other fun activities including a station to write funny messages on diapers!



There were also cards to make predictions about the baby and give us some advice!



A coloring station for the kids to partake in the festivities!


The table decorations were so cute! The bumblebee theme was perfect!





And for the food! It was all SSSOOOO good!









Seriously every square inch was decorated to match the theme!


And for the dessert table. It was my favorite spot!



How awesome is this cake?!? Jenny and I made chocolates so she added the bumblebee ones we made to make the cake even cuter! 


Abby really wanted to be in our picture but refused to take a picture with us!


So she showed off her bumblebee shirt in her own photo!



And my wonderful mom made the trip down to help us celebrate! She was also such a great help before and during the shower. 


Jenny was seriously the best host! She invited tons of people into her home that she didn't know.


Abby was a great host too by sharing her toys with all the other kids!


Vinnie spent most of his time at the grill so this is one of the few photos we had of our other host!


Then our guests arrived and the party got started! :)



It was so nice to have so many friends help us celebrate!



I think the kids had fun playing!













Matt's relative Kaye is ready to step in as our "Arizona grandma" and jumped right in to help when we needed her!







We had lots of Matt's co-workers help us celebrate.


A handful of my co-workers came to celebrate, too!


And we always love when our neighbors celebrate with us!





This baby just keeps growing!


We seriously have some amazing friends. An entire room was filled with gifts!


 

We had fun opening all the presents.




We also had fun chocolates for everyone to take home as party favors.


We had so much fun. Hope you enjoyed the picture overload! The nursery is almost ready so I will definitely be posting that soon! :)
