Tyson's mom, Nanette (a family friend), Becky (his aunt) and Erin (his cousin) threw an absolutely amazing couples shower for us in Fort Worth last weekend, and we haven't been able to stop talking about it! Tyson's mom and dad have a beautiful new home that they opened up to about 45 family members and friends for an afternoon to celebrate the upcoming arrival of Baby T. It couldn't have been MORE special for us to be surrounded by so many people we love so much as we prepare for our new adventure into parenthood. It really meant the world to us just to have everyone there, but we were blown away and truly touched by how generous our friends and family are. We received so many wonderful gifts and to say Baby T was spoiled rotten is a severe understatement. We were truly blessed and showered with an overwhelming amount of love and support. Saying thank you could never seem like enough, but from the bottom of our hearts, we are so completely thankful for a shower that provided us with special memories and a room full of baby goodies!
Erin, Me, Gigi (Tyson's mom), Becky and Nanette. They put on an amazing shower for us!
The decorations were precious...Nanette's daughter made us this super cute diaper cake!
The adorable cupcakes they had made for us! Not only were they pretty to look at, they were delicious!
One of my best friends from college who I haven't seen in FOREVER, Jackie. We were so excited when we found out that we are due only ONE day apart!!
It was a display shower, so everyone brought an unwrapped gift that we could all see and touch!
We played a game to see if we'd get the same answers on our ideas about becoming parents...he wasn't too excited about it.
Have you gathered by now that he's never serious? Of course he was excited about it!
And guess what?! Most of our answers were the same! Looks like we're cut out for this parenting stuff after all...
Me with Aunt Kelly and her best friend Carrie. They gave me a bracelet with the verse "Her children rise up and call her blessed..." on it. I will cherish it forever!
Me, Aunt Kelly (my sister) and Nona (my mom)
She has been such a blessing to me during this entire pregnancy. I really don't know what I would do without my sister and best friend! Baby T doesn't know it yet, but it has the best aunt ever!
Mommy & Daddy To Be!
We love the bump!
Our friends from college, Lauren and Robert that we haven't seen since we ran into them on their honeymoon 3 years ago in Paris! Yes, it's the truth...even though we don't have a picture to prove it, it really happened.
How could we not be SO grateful to come home, unload our car, and have it look like this?? We are so blessed.
Sporting my new diaper bag!!
...and stylishly sporting his!!
