Life with the Dickerson's: Shower-palooza

I didn't realize how long it's been since I've posted something! I'm sure there is lots to share, but for now we'll start with our 2 wonderful showers!

First up is Courtney and Mom! Thank you BOTH SO MUCH for an amazing shower! I know you both put a LOT of work and thought into all of the planning and details!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd also like to thank Dotti for getting us the space, you are a wonderful person and I'm SO glad to have you as part of our extended family.

With my love for monkeys this HAD to be a monkey themed shower! The palm trees were absolutely adorable! This was a whole family effort too! Mom, Bob and Courtney worked together to make this. The adorable burp cloths were made by mom!

Here is the cake Court had made! The frosting tasted AMAZING! Mom made a delicious punch! I think I drank half the bowl :-) There were meatballs, dip, chocolate covered strawberries, fresh pineapple and chocolate covered bananas!!!!!!!

Quinn got SO many precious outfits! There were so many that the pile of laundry was about 2 feet high and covered about 3.5 feet wide! We started stacking it on top of the dresser and VERY quickly realized we needed a hamper! We were also luck enough to receive a boopy, her car seat, and her bouncy seat!

Thank you to EVERYONE who helped out and was able to come!!!!!!!!

There were SO many people who helped out with my next shower! Thank you Erin for all of your creativity, hosting it at your house and the AMAZING cakes! My sister who I love dearly for all you did, April who is now a professional pom pon maker, Tina for putting together the games and gifts, Shirley for the ridiculous diaper decor and all of my friends who helped bring food and set up!

This was the guest table. Each guest was asked to leave a parenting tip (from a wise owl) on a card and hang it from the tree. Quinn's piggy bank was also on the table, along with the guest book and envelopes for the thank you cards.

This is the dessert table! Erin made my FAVORITE cake mojito along with an orange mocha cake, which is now one of my top 5! There were owl cookies, twizlers, orange slices, gum balls, sixlets, chocolate covered pomogranetes, and SO much more! Then there were also goody bags for everyone to take some home!
