My sister and niece hosted a lovely baby shower in Fort Worth for Peanut and I this last weekend. Stephanie has always done a great job planning parties (see here and here) but I was really impressed with how much food prep and baking she did to prepare for this one. I have hosted a tea party before and think its one of the hardest kinds of parties to host since there are dozens of miniature foods to prepare. Stephanie's food was delicious and the decorations were beautiful!
Since we are waiting to find out the gender of Peanut, the party was all about shades of yellow and tan- which I love! The nursery bedding is also a yellow gingham :)

A special thank you to all of my friends and family that came to this shower and made it a special time for David and I. You have each added to our joy during this treasured time :)
