Last month Rachel threw Baby and me a shower. We invited our family and friends from work. Rachel made beautiful invitations and everything was Bumble Bee themed.
My mother-in-law made lemonade from lemons from her backyard; it might be my favorite.
We dipped pretzels for the candy bar.
For gifts for the guests, Rachel put out different themed candies for each person to make a good bag. She had candies that matched the colors; Abba Zabbas, lemon heads, dipped pretzels and marshmallows, licorice, and salt water taffy. My mom made hard candy suckers with little bees on them. Rachel also bought Bit O Honey and Atkinson candies. Who knew Atkinson had a whole line of candies?
Rachel's boss makes wonderful butter cream frosting and was kind enough to make cupcakes for the party. There were bee hives and flowers, each with a sugar bee. The were beautiful and tasty to boot!
The food was wonderful!
Rachel put together one game (games aren't usually my favorite). It's a form of the Price Is Right. She bought all kinds of things from Target and we had to guess the price. It was fun and entertaining and the best part was that I got to keep everything!

I am explaining how the Snap N Go stroller works.
Once again, I am in awe of the generosity of our friends and family. Thank you all.

Bekah, this is Darla, Rachel's mother-in-law. Obviously I'm a blog stalker and I had to write you a note. You and Rachel are amazing party planners. If you two get tired of CBU I think there is a hugh new career waiting. Your shower was beeutifully designed and presented. I'm praying your upcoming delivery is smooth and can't wait to hear news about your little one.
