Hungry Heart: Baby Shower

Tennessee was spoiled rotten by friends and family! She's one blessed little girl!

Saturday was the baby shower that my family has been preparing for since Christmas! The result was a beautiful celebration of my baby girl. As usual, there was tons of food, laughter and love.

Since David and I will be moving across the country here in a couple months, this was likely the last chance for us to see a lot of our friends and family. We are hoping to have a BBQ or something before we leave to see everyone one last time - and to introduce Tennessee to them in person!

Anyone who knows my family, knows we aren't exactly the most cooperative people when it comes to participating in activities. Which meant Leesh and Sarah had their work cut out for them with the shower games. I think they came up with some awesome choices! My favorites were drawing a baby on a paper plate - while the plate was on top of their heads, and the card where everyone wrote down virtues that they would give Tennessee if they could. They were all beautiful, but my favorites were:

"A mean right hook for all the guys Auntie Leesh can't scare away!" - Leesh

"Always surrounded by the love of this family." - Aunt Linda

"Just call Grandma and it will be okay." - Momma

I plan to keep them and maybe give to Tennessee at graduation or some other momentous occasion in her life.

I don't think I could ever pick a favorite gift, but one of the sweetest was the box of items my Daddy picked out. There really is nothing like the bond between a father and his daughter. Something David will soon figure out - not that he isn't already wrapped around her tiny finger!
