My Family
Me and my cute Sister
Sube is a dear friend who came up from AZ
She couldn't believe all these people were there for her!
Total shock!
The theme of the shower was "Cute as a Button" and everything was pink and white buttons. I wanted to make 2 button cakes and wasn't worried about them at all. How hard can it be, right? So I made 2 round cakes and had them on a cooling rack. I went to put Lauren down for a nap. When I came back into the kitchen I saw a little boy with 2 cheeks and 2 hands full of cake. ARH! Ok, I'll just make another one. No big deal. I had some frosting and frosted it and put it away. So I had my 2nd cake made and on colling racks. I went to get my hair cut. When I came back, Greg was in the kitchen eating the cake. I could not believe it. Like father, like son! He saw a small crack and thought I wouldn't use it. Nothing some frosting couldn't cover up. So I decided to call Albertson's in SLC and just have them make the cakes for me. I told the girl, I want the lightest pastel pink you can make. Very soft and light- it's for a GIRL baby shower. I about died when I picked it up. Before I actually saw the cake, I could see the neon pink lights reflecting off the cake. OH. MY. The cakes just weren't meant to be!
She couldn't believe all these people were there for her!Total shock!We had just a good time giving Jineena a surprise baby shower. She is THE easiest person to surprise. However, she 's not the most "on time" person in the world so we were afraid we would all be sitting around for 30 min. while she was making her way over to the church- 2 min away. Her friend was "taking her out to lunch" and was picking Jineena up at 11am. Well, Jineena called her to see if they could move it to Noon. UGH!! Her friend was quick and convinced Jineena that 11am would be fine.

After the shower it was fun to just hang out with all the girls. We kidnapped Jineena and went to dinner. She had her heart set on Chilie's for lunch so we went there. Then we just hung out at my SIL's place and played games and laughed a TON! It was so nice to go out to dinner with no highchairs, no bibs, no shoveling in your food because the kids were done 10 minutes ago, no worrying about sleeping arrangements, port a cribs, baths, bedtimes- you get it! And my house survived all the men and kids here!
