Michael and I are so blessed to be part of such an amazing family and to have so many lovely people who care so much about us and about our sweet baby girl. Today, my cousins threw us a beautiful pink and gray chevron baby shower for our Little Pearl. The decorations were beautiful, the food, the cupcakes, and the punch were yummy and the company was delightful. We appreciate everything so much. There were a few people who I unfortunately didn't get a picture with (including one of just me and my mom, my aunt and I, my cousins and I, my husband and I when he came at the end, and a few other people who came), but I really enjoyed getting to see each and every one and share this day with them playing games, visiting, and celebrating our sweet girl. These are the pictures taken by my mom and a few by me. I look forward to getting more pictures from other people via facebook to add to this post!!! <3 It was a beautiful day and we are so grateful for everything.

The tearjerker of the day. Mom found an envelope with my brother Cody's name on it containing $20 so with his money she went to St. Mary's Bookstore not knowing what she was going to get or what she was looking for. She found this Pearl Rosary and knew this was what he wanted her to get for his niece. I'm sure there wasn't a dry eye there. I opened the card and as soon as I saw his name began to tear up and by the time she was done with this story I was sobbing and everyone else was crying too. It was an extremely emotional moment for us all.
