My cousins shower...

well I don't have pics of her with my blanket (there were 70 people there and the gift opening was SO fast)

but my mom and aunts were 'so impressed' (my moms words exactly)

I was so happy to hear that...especially since these women are really into their creations...

It was a huge surprise for my cousin...they really threw her off...her SIL was just engaged so they told her that her engagment party was saturday and next week they were having an anniversary parents for their parents....which she didn't believe (although the engagement party is really next week)

so she was a mess when she came in...





there were 70 very generous guests....it took 5 CARS to get the gifts home for her!!!! (her MIL is one of 11...so together they have 80 first cousins!!!!)



and here are her sisters and mine...the 5 of us were very close growing up...other cousins were much older than us...


and my mom, sister and me!

It looks like a wonderful shower!

Looks like a great shower, and I'm sure it meant a lot for the mommy to be that you were able to make the long trip

Do you have a picture of the blanket before you gave it to her?

here are the blankets that I made for her...





I think that I came to the shower from CA...got her emotionally as well... I was so happy that I was able to be there...

That's such a beautiful blanket you made for the baby.

WOW!! That's one lucky baby!! You look great, Erica!!! Hope to see you on your next visit!!!

Kathi...I was so jealous when I heard you brought Sean to the GTG and I wasn't there...

I thought I might have stayed and try to get people together, but I got a slight case of bronchitis and just wanted to get home....it was a good thing, b/c I was called for an interview today
