A Celebration With the Girls

Earlier this month, some of our long time family friends got together and threw us the sweetest baby shower. This group of friends is one that Patrick and I both love to celebrate with - we have celebrated all kinds of events throughout the years with them.

There have been engagement parties, wedding showers, weddings, baby showers, baptisms, birthdays, and more. If there's something to celebrate, we like to get together and party.

Baby Girl was no exception.

The hostesses knew that Blue Flour Bakery cookies were a must, along with cheese straws. They even pulled a recipe from my blog to make, too!

The gifts at this shower were definitely some of the most thoughtful ones that Baby Girl received. One of the girls that I work with handmade three gorgeous baby outfits. My aunt handmade two baby blankets. One of the girls found the most perfect outfits for her that look like something I would wear {with the exception of that Gamecock one!} Another girl I work with collected shells along the coastline and arranged them in a shadowbox for her low country / beach themed nursery.

These mothers know how to put together a party, y'all.

And this great-grandmother-to-be knows how to party. She might be 93, but I think she's got more energy and more things on her social calendar than the rest of us combined.

& this group of girls? They're pretty awesome. Some of us have known each other for nearly 26 years! We've been there for each other's milestones throughout those years... engagements, weddings, & babies. Here's to adding one more celebration to the books!
