A Couples Shower



Our fabulous friends Chris, Alison, Kat, and Jason helped us celebrate the upcoming arrival of Baby Nelson with many St. Louis friends last weekend. We were so blessed to be surrounded by lots of amazing friends for a wonderful dinner and lots of fun! Thank you to everyone who celebrated with us (especially Audrey and Aaron all the way from Virginia!), you all mean so much to us. Many of the men noted that this was the first baby shower they had ever attended, but I'm pretty sure they enjoyed themselves (the Daddy had lots of fun- he even got a dart board!). Everyone wrote words of advice to us and letters to our little babe. Reading through them brought tears to our eyes, we'll treasure your words always! What a special gift!

Kat took some great pictures, made some cute decorations, and baked the delicious cake! Thank you!

Alison (and Chris) hosted the shower at her house, decorated an adorable table, made yummy punch, and cooked an amazing meal! Thank you!
