30 Weeks!

Mason's First Shower- 8/27/2011


On Saturday, August 27th, my closest friends hosted a couples BBQ/Shower for us!  THANK YOU to the hostesses: Rachel Bourne, Sarra Furr, Katie Johnson, Kristen Bennett, Lesley Jean McLean, Natalie Work, and Sara Ingram! Special thanks to honorary hostess, Sue Ella Bourne for keeping the girls straight, Burney Bourne for cooking the BBQ, and Ms. Jean McLean, who also helped with the cooking. The food was GREAT! Ryan and I are so grateful for everything.  I couldn't ask for better friends!  Love you all!

The shower was from 7:00-10:30 (although, Ryan and I didn't get home until 1 AM!...)  We had so much fun catching up with everyone, and didn't even realize how late it had gotten!  Upon getting home, he HAD to put together Mason's new stroller.  He likes to get things taken care of right away!  Honestly, I love that about him, especially since I am so impatient these days!  Works out perfectly! :) After the assembly, we both played around in the nursery for awhile, so needless to say it was a LONG, but EXCITING night! 

Mason received lots of wonderful gifts! Some of which included: Gamecock gear (so he will be ready for football season), lots of cute new clothes, a baby monitor, a travel set (stroller and car seat), a few pieces of his crib bedding, a handmade blanket, and of course, diapers!
