Today I had the opportunity to attend my best friend's (also known as my goddaughter's mother) baby shower. All of the decorations and the set up met beyond all expectations that I had in mind. I can easily say that it was beyond the most creative (a.k.a absolutely adorable, not being biased at all) baby showers I have ever had the pleasure of attending. Here are my top ten favorite things I love most about baby showers!
1. The adorable theme
The theme of my goddaughter's (Madison Ann-Marie) baby shower was a Minnie Mouse theme and everything couldn't have been anymore perfect!
2. All of the creative decorations
A majority of all of the decorations that were there were things that I could never think up all on my own! I give HUGE props to my best friend and her family for all of their inventive ideas.
3. All of the darling baby outfits
Who doesn't love to buy cute baby clothes, especially little girl clothes! And with the Minnie Mouse theme there were most certainly a lot of little Minnie tutus! I have never seen so many different types of Minnie onesies, dresses, mittens, little booties and all different types of outfits in between!
4. The baby related games
Throughout the baby shower we had a few different types of games. One of the games was a "The Price is Right" themed game where you had to guess the prices to certain baby items. Such as the price of 110 diapers or how much a pack of baby wipes were. My mom and I were the top two winners to have the closest guess! There was also a gift bingo where you write down in the bingo spaces what types of gifts you think will be opened and cross off as the gifts are opened to win a bingo! Another game that we played was a word scrabble that was related to baby things (I wasn't very good at that game).
5. The unique types of play-on-word decorations
One of my favorites in the "Just about to pop!" with a little jar of popcorn... absolutely charming.
6. The clever ways to make gifts out of useful baby items
There was such a wide variety of clever gifts that were made out of different things such as baby diapers, little bibs, lotions, baby body washes and bubble bath and other items that can be used (even though the gifts are just too cute to take apart).
7. Being able to take precious pictures with your best friend
I am glad I was able to capture all the special moments my best friend and I were able to share at her baby shower, it is a day I will never forget.
8. The delicious food
Enough said.
9. Being able to capture memorable moments with my best friend and her family
I had the honor of being able to photograph my best friend open all of her gifts and all her family having special moments together.
10. Sentimental gifts
It is always a unforgettable moment when you get to witness someone open a gift that they will be able to cherish for the rest of their lives.
