My mom and sister threw baby Scotty and I the best baby shower last night! I feel so blessed to have so many people who love and care about Jer and I and our little bundle of joy coming very soon! I wanted to show off some of their awesome skill and give you some ideas if you ever want to throw an awesome baby shower of your own.
A lot of the decor my mom already had around the house, which was awesome. She found a lot of the little details on Etsy and Amazon and we also found several things at Michaels Crafts.
We played two awesome games: Guess the name of the baby animal. i.e. Cat= kitten.

The food table, pre-food.
Detail.
The mantle complete with fishing net, shells, lantern.
Game prize basket.
A prize close-up. My mom got those cute tags on Etsy.
Entryway table with some pics from my recent shoot with Phil Van-Nostrand from Santa Barbara and advice cards for people to fill out as they walk in.
Some close-ups. (Sneak peek.)
Candy jar bar. Swedish fish, starfish, and saltwater taffy. We got mini candy scoops on Amazon and the cute little bags on Etsy. The candy was from Robitaille in Carpinteria. This was the favor for people to take home.
Amazing cookies and cupcakes made by Nancy, someone from our church.
Another photo shoot photo bomb to show you the awesome banner my sister made. It says "Ahoy its a Boy". My mom got the PDF files on Etsy and they printed them, backed them and strung them with twine.
Close-up decor.
The party-throwers and I.
The spread.
Guests!
Chels and Belle drove 2.5 hours just to be at my shower! So Sweet!
And "My water broke!" where you get a plastic baby in an ice cube and you race to see who can get theirs out the fastest. They were so fun!
Opening gifts. There are a million like this so you get the idea :o).
We had a wonderful turnout with more than 30 guests there. It was so fun to see everyone and to catch up. There were lots of other guests not pictured here that I am so grateful came. It was such a wonderful time and I just didn't want the night to end! Thanks to everyone who came and participated. Can't wait for Scotty to get to know you and how much you love him already!
