The one where they throw me a baby shower! (Kerry)

My wonderful friends here in Nairobi had a baby shower for me last weekend.  I was really touched that friends, most of whom I just met 6 months ago, went to all the trouble to throw such a beautiful shower for me.  The decorations and the food were like something out of Martha Stewart and my photos do not do it justice.  We played some great games and I got some really cool gifts.  This baby certainly will not be lacking in stuff!  


Here are some photos:

Invitations, ours got a little crinkled


Decorations and a game

Setting up the delicious food

Complete with chocolate dipped marshmallow pops

Juice with or without a little extra love

Popcorn favors

Baby photos

This was one of my favorites - everyone wrote a list of their wishes for the baby

Some helpers



The boys all went to play paintball while the shower was going on and unfortunately I don't have any photos of that but they all claimed to have a great time and there were no injuries.  I really should have taken a group photo with the best hostesses, Cassie, Sara, and Stephanie who threw the shower but I forgot.  It was a great day and thank you to everyone who attended!!!
