The challenge of joy!


Last Saturday I threw (along with 5 other fabulous hostesses) a fabulous baby shower for my sister. It is the 2nd shower I have given her. The first was for her wedding. Once the baby arrives I will have been to 10 showers for her. Also, on Saturday I received 2 more baby shower invitations. Wow, I love the girls who the showers are for; I will love the babies they have after these gifting opportunities; however there is still a struggle for me. The struggle is joy verses the easier option - bitterness. I love all my friends and the families they are creating but, after all the parties and time you spend celebrating their decisions there is always the side of me that says "what about me?" Oh well, I guess that is enough feeling sorry for myself. I must be thankful that I am not half as desperate as those girls on the Bachelor tonight! - Good TV! Also, I am going to try to be better at including pictures - Enjoy!

The food...my spinach artichoke dip was quite a hit!




Man that is a lot of Pink!!


We hung baby Lily's underwear as a shout out to Katy's Batchlorette Party where we hung hers!

My cousin Susan had a St. Louis Cardinal Jersy Mongramed for Lily Belle!
