BBQ Baby Shower!

Last weekend we had our co-ed BBQ baby shower at our house. My friend Diane hosted it and did such a cute job with a fall theme. Everything was autumn-colored, including the diaper cake. I loved the little bunting too!
IMG_3261While the guys hung out and drank beer, us ladies decorated onesies. Diane had iron-on fabric and fabric paints for us to use. Once I got started, I just kept going — I think I made 3 of them!
IMG_3263IMG_3275My friend Robyn won the onesie decorating contest! She made a guitar and wrote “FRET-fully cute” — I thought it was so clever. πŸ™‚ And guess what else. We have the same due date! How crazy is that?

Andrew was in charge of the grill, of course. He marinated chicken pieces and grilled them for dinner. Some people brought some brats for him to grill too. Everyone else brought sides, and it all was delicious!
IMG_3267We all ate in the conservatory, because, unfortunately, we had a very wet and chilly day!

I’m really thankful for our friends and their generosity. Andrew and I had a great time spending time with friends, eating good food, and celebrating our little baby… who will be joining us soon!
