it's a boy...

one of my little sisters friends from grade school is having a little boy this summer & this last weekend heaphy (my little sis) & her friend threw her a shower... which meant i got to help out:)  it really turned out cute.  here are a couple of pics of the stuff i helped with.

 

{if you're gonna give diapers, they might as well be cute!}

{the favors- made with jumbo marshmallows, paper nut cup & frosting}

will work for food...

the kids are always wanting to help me make dinner, but my hunny is usually here & helps entertain them so that we can eat sometime that night:)  not too long ago my hunny went to a Jazz Game & i was flying solo.  what better time than to let the kids dig in & get their hands dirty... we tried to spare their clothes & use aprons:)  becks had so much fun making dinner.  he literally did everything that wasn't too dangerous.  avi was our little dish washer.  too bad when i wasn't looking she was sipping the dish water off of a spoon... eeewwwww!  when i told her that it was disgusting, she just argued with me-"no, it's not disgusting!"  needless to say, we all had a blast, even though we didn't eat until 8:30 pm:)

**not the best lighting, but priceless pictures!
