...this time by my in-laws' church friends. My MIL wanted to wait until Owen was home to have her big shower w/all of her closest friends (and she has a lot!), and so we had it on Sunday. There were probably 35 or 40 people there, and a gorgeous cake, and gifts piled high. We won't have to buy diapers for literally weeks and weeks and weeks now...and Owen has the best wardrobe for someone under the age of one EVER! He has tons of clothes now, for right now and for 12, 18, and 24 mo. He is going to look soooooooooo cute. :) And the toys--so many awesome toys! His favorite right now (I haven't gotten all of them out yet, or else his head would explode) is the circus train. In fact, it excited him so much that he actually GOT UP AND HIS HANDS AND KNEES for the first time and rocked! He wanted to GET IT! He did this 3 or 4 times!!! I cried. Of course.
So once again, we are humbled by the people who love us and who love our family, even if they don't know Shannon and I that well. Our lives have been enriched and made easier by the love and generosity of Chuck and Ardie's church community, and there are not enough thanks in the world to tell them how much we appreciate it. Thank you to First Baptist Church in Farmington, and everyone who was at the shower Sunday (in person or in spirit).
