Baby Shower #2 for Emma!

This morning, our sweet friends from church threw Jen another incredible baby shower - "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice."  SO many people came and celebrated.  The love and support was almost overwhelming (in a good way!).  There was pink and sugar and spice everywhere you looked, as well as a couple of fun games, prizes and baby gifts galore!  We all had a great time of fellowship and one of the best parts of the whole shower was that all of the ladies who came made Emma a "prayer blanket."  In case you are unfamiliar with a prayer blanket.... all of the ladies sat around 2 pieces of fabric stacked on top of each other that had cuts all around it.  As they prayed out loud over Jen and Emma (and Greg and Noah!), they tied the stings into knots which eventually made a blanket all put together!  It was such a neat concept and is a gift we'll always treasure and hold very dear to our hearts.

Here's a few snippets from the big event.  The hostesses did everything possible (and succeeded!) in making this the most pink and most perfect shower.








We cannot possibly describe the joy in our hearts and how much our cup runs over.  We consider ourselves beyond blessed, completely spoiled and totally ready for Emma's grand entrance!
