Our Shower






We had a wonderful time last Saturday night. My mom and dad wanted to do something extra special for us. Around 85 of our friends and family joined us to celebrate Seth's arrival to our family. The mayor of our city graciously let us use a local house turned into a beautiful place for parties. He let us us his once a year spot. Our food was catered by a local man that is also a family friend. Everyone raved about the food. Our friend Tina designed and printed our invitations as our gift. God has truly had his hand in every aspect of Seth joining our family. We have had favor in so many areas.
Our dear friends Ben and Lisa MC'd the shower. They are so funny and everyone said they made the shower so much fun. Joel and I played the "Newlywed Game." I did better than Joel at guessing answers. Of course, Joel is easy to read as everything is football, football, and football. They also read famous people who were adopted. That was interesting. They finished by having people say the names of nursery rhymes.
It certainly was not your traditional shower. We loved it. Thanks Bebe and Roro.

It looks like you had great fun. Just four more days! Have you started packing? That was the stressful thing to me when we went to Vietnam. I ended up taking way too much stuff. Will you be able to post on your blog while you are in Thailand. I will keep you in my prayers.
