Good morning all - It's nice and sunny, but still cold, here this morning. I always enjoy the sun shining through the windows to warm up the house.
I have several projects going today, but wanted to share the pictures of the baby shower we put on this past Saturday, for our oldest son's wife, Stephanie. They are expecting a little girl in less than a month. There haven't been any little girls in our family in over 20 years, so this is a very special time and boy, did I have fun 'being girly'. Steph has picked owls as her nursery theme, so I ran with that idea for the shower as well.

| Happy Mommy to be, Stephanie |

| The mantel laden with decorations, favors and some of the gifts |
 |
| Little bags of lavender soap that we made, with vintage baby girl tags, to give to the guests |
 |
| I think she likes the quilt! |
 |
| The owl cake I made. I doubted whether I could craft the toppers, so Maria, our other daughter-in-law, helped to make the trees and owls out of foam board...aren't they cute |
 |
| I even colored the inside of the cake pink and light green. |

We had a wonderful day!
