Unfortunately I didn't get a picture with the Mom-to-be since she was busy mingling with the large number of guests. She wore this gorgeous tight red dress. She is going to be a HOT momma! Everyone kept raving how pretty she looked.
Since Heather is a bag fan of Italian food there was a huge spread of eggplant/chicken parmasean, different types of pastas, and heroes. Troy's mom brought a whole gluten free dish. It was a new recipe with cheese, chicken, broccoli, rice, and mustard. The mustard really gave the dish a tangy flavor. Alot of the guests even ate it without realizing it was gluten free! Hehe :)
I'm going to ask her for the recipe and will share it with you guys!
The decorations for the shower were simple yet classic. Mason jars seem to be the latest trend for everything if they are popping up at baby showers. I loved the mix of colorful roses that really brightened up the tables.
I didn't get to snap a picture but they also had a clothesline hanging up pinned up with newborn outfits. Absolutely adorable!
This isn't my picture but it was very similar to this:
Not only was the boyfriend's mom kind enough to bring me a dinner, but she always baked some gf dessert goodies. Let me tell you these Betty Crocker cookies were gone in 10 minutes. I was glad I snagged these two. The entire shower devoured these without even noticing a different taste. Yummy!
On the way home from the shower we stopped at a few stores. The sunset was so gorgeous I had to snap a few pictures of it. Hope this cooler weather brings on more fall sunsets.
A marvelous weekend!
Baby showers are so much fun! I love watching the moms-to-be opening all the cute presents!
ReplyDeleteYes me too! I love all the baby clothes because they're so tiny!
DeleteIt sounds like a fantastic baby shower. I can't believe there would be that many people at a baby shower. I always love reading how Troy's mom is so mindful and considerate of your allergies.
ReplyDeleteYour weather looks gorgeous and fall-ready!
ReplyDeleteHeather's Baby Shower is looking outstanding. The perfect execution of the party plans is always required so that everyone can enjoy the bash. I also attended a fabulous fashion show themed bridal for my cousin at the local event space Atlanta and the bride-to-be gave a showstopping appearance that anyone can die for.
