Stop, I want to get off!
My friend, who just got married (I posted about doing her shower, rehearsal dinner and wedding back in May), is to become a grandmother for the first time! (In case you're scratching your head about the timing, it was her second marriage, and her 5 kids are now grown up!) I did this daughter's bridal shower a few years ago. Apparently, she liked that and the stuff I did for her mother, so she told her mother that she wanted me to give her a baby shower! That's a new one! Uhhh, I think you're sort of supposed to wait for someone to offer to give you a bridal or baby shower!
I'm delighted to do so, but, since she's due in January, and last winter was very bad here, which started the first week in December, we need to have it in either October or November--which just happen to be the busiest months of the year for me, and particularly busy this year. I have a lecture to give at work on a Saturday in November; we have Christmas the day after Thanksgiving, etc., and the event I did the graphics work for is in late October. (I'm seriously tempted to give her a Halloween baby shower
, but she doesn't approve of Halloween.) Can you imagine a Halloween baby shower???? Think of Rosemary's Baby...seriously, this year has been insanely busy, but in a nice way. It would be nice to get to bed before midnight, though!
Can anyone post pics of baby showers they've hosted or been to? I could use some ideas. Thanks.
