OHC's Co-Ed Baby Shower

This past weekend, good friends of ours hosted a co-ed baby shower for our pending kidlet. It was a very nice venue, and fantastic evening full of good food & friends. Our families even participated and sent up some fun things up in advance for us to open as well that evening.



Parting gifts for everyone.



Some custom blended rosemary sea salt.



Julie's yummy from scratch coconut-chocolate cake.



Lots of nice candlelight, and flowers everywhere.



Yummy cucumber tea sandwiches.



Orange, my FAVORITE color.



Friends mingling.



Having a good time.



Making people pose, much to their dismay. My iPhone camera sucks!



Cute Pregnant Holly...!



People's backsides.



The nice spread that Steve, Kelly & Yvonne put out for everyone.



Everyone watching us open gifts. A little overwhelming.



Amazed and very grateful for the generosity of all our friends who took the time to come celebrate with us. You truly all our loved. Holly and I appreciate everyone's thoughtfulness.



Smile for my crappy iPhone camera...AGAIN...!



The Raiders onezie's from Patrick & Noelle, became a practice run for me to see how quickly I could put it on a "practice baby." I'm going to be an awesome Dad! Cookie Monster makes a great practice baby btw...!

Bummed I missed it - though I think we are now all healthy again. Thank goodness!!

It looks like everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves!! I can't wait to meet and snuggle little OHC. We'll have to keep in touch so you can let me know when a good time will be to drop by!

Good luck with these last few weeks! At times they might go painstakingly slow, but time will then turn to warp speed after he is here!

Ugh, is that what I really look like? Hmmm, I blame your stupid iPhone camera :)

Kidding aside, it was a wonderful evening, so great to be surrounded by our friends that love us.
