Please meet Alicia, momma to be of Audrina Faith Carter, my first grandchild. Audrina is due August 8th but the doctors say she can come at any time now. The baby shower was last Sunday and here are some pictures I'd like to share with you all.....
This girl did not wear ONE piece of maternity clothing this whole pregnancy. Makes me sick. lol
My niece Isabella standing over the indoor pond, do you see the fish? You can't see but it goes underneath both sides of the walkway.
These are the cutest hand towels
Alicia's girlfriends mom made this cake. It was so delicious, look at the little onesie.
Just look at these "onesie" cookie favors, aren't they just adorable?
I made these pacifier candies from life savors and jelly bellies!

It was a VERY hot day, so most of us stayed indoors but the view from the deck was great.
Can you see the deck pool down below? Is that cool or what!

Gifts, gifts and more gifts.... The array of colors are wonderful aren't they?
Lovely blanket and pillow hand made by her grandma in Montana.
These are the prize gifts because they are "Carter's" bags, (our last name)lol
Jackie thought the baby needed a bear so she went to Build A Bear and made one! Isn't it just the cutest!
