A Baby Shower

Today I attended a Mother-Daughter baby shower for Jack, the soon to arrive bundle of joy for my son and daughter-in-law. 






Jack will be my 5th grandchild and 3rd grandson.  But he is the 1st child for my son. It is a very exciting time in Paxton's and Courtney's life.

My 2 daughters on either end and Courtney and me in the middle.
The Mother/Daughter theme was a great idea.  I have never been to one like that. 






 
 It was at the Glenwood Tea Room.  I found this old picture of the Glenwood Drug Store in the 1950's.  The building doesn't look anything like it now.  It looked a lot better in 1950.  So I thought this picture was pretty cool.
 
We had a nice lunch and watched Courtney unwrap some very fun and cute gifts.  I'll just show a few of my favorite ones.


 I bought the necessary but boring car seat.

  1. What a lovely idea. I believe baby showers are being used more often in the UK, whereas when my children were born the presents came after the birth.

    Your daughters look just like you, you must be proud of your growing family.
