Michelle's Baby Shower

It's gonna be a girl! We can't wait for the newest addition to our family. My youngest cousin Michelle and her husband Bob are expecting their first child, a little girl at the end of the month. Her shower was held recently at a local restaurant and it was beautiful!
Mom's flower centerpieces were lovely. My sister in law's diaper cake was awesome. Mikealyn's favors were adorable - little white boxes holding yummy Lindt chocolates inside. Each box had coordinating ribbon and baby stickers adorning it.

The baby's room theme is Disney Princesses and atop the diaper cake was an adorable piggy bank in the shape of Cinderella's carriage. My cupcakes came out good and I thought they were tasty. I had lots of fun making the cupcake picks for the tops and really think they dressed up the cupcakes nicely.
Since I didn't want the cupcakes to compete with the favors or the shower cake, I ordered individual cupcake boxes and designed the sticker for each one. The original sticker was scallop shaped like the pick but I put the wrong date on it an realized after I affixed them all to the boxes. Now I know not to do that again while watching TV! So I had to create bigger stickers since the scallops would not align perfectly with the new set I printed.

Those cupcakes look good enough to eat - as I'm sure they were - but, well, this is coming out wrong. Excellent photos!!!! There - that's what I meant to say. ;-) Fun - a baby shower for a GIRL! Not that I don't love my boys...I do, but a sweet baby girl. ;-)
