A GRACEfilled DAY

Emily and Michael came home for Christmas, but Emily came a week before Michael, so we thought it would be a great time to throw Emily a baby shower. Some of her close friends and I hosted the shower and my mom was so great and offered her house.

The Party Guests

The Rose Petal Ceremony - This is something that my mom and her friends do. Basically, each person sprinkles rose petals over the mom-to-be while saying a special wish or blessing for mom and baby.

It was a great shower. It was so good to have Emily home and to honor her and sweet baby, Grace.

Emily-

We love you so much and are so happy for you and the change that's about to take place in your life. You will be an amazing mom and like I told you before....as long as what you do comes from your heart, it can't be wrong. Congratulations!

Grace-

We are so excited to have you as an addition to our family. We already love you so much and are anxiously awaiting your arrival. Keep warm and safe inside for now and when you're ready, we'll be out here waiting with hugs and kisses. We love you!
