the essence

As I mentioned earlier, we had a baby shower on Saturday for one of the girls at the chapel. Rach & Erin took charge of the event & did an amazing job! The decorations were really superb. I think it was the nicest shower we've ever had at the chapel.

Remember these puffs that my mom made for Megan's bridal shower a couple years ago & that I made for Erin's shower last year?

Well, Erin made a BUNCH of them & hung them from the ceiling all over the room! It looked fabulous! She also did the napkin rings that Martha Stewart has on her site for the project as well. It really looked so great.





Erin has also taken to making cakes. No formal training or anything she just decided to do it:



Can you believe that?!? I've been so impressed with all of the cakes she's been making.

Addison really liked the cake. Or, maybe I should rephrase that. Addison LOVED the icing on the cake. I think she may've been going into sugar shock here...




Rachel also made matching burp cloths for the mother-to-be to take home & cute little favors holding chocolates for the tables!



Me and the creative ladies



Everything turned out so nice!
