Shower #1

We made it to GA/SC and back safely...we left VA with a pretty empty truck and came home with it full of blessings! We left last Thursday night and were able to stay through Monday. It was definitely a fun filled weekend. Friday, Jason, mom and I went to the baby stores there to see what they had and to tweak and make a new registry and then of course had to visit Hobby Lobby in which we found some decor for the nursery. Then that night, Jason played in a softball tournie with Chris until 1am...needless to say, dad, mom, Erin and I left about 10 as it was freezing cold outside. Then Saturday, Teresa Farrow, our families dear friend, hosted a fabulous shower for us. It was wonderful to see so many friends that I had not seen since our wedding. And we were definitely blessed with soooo many things for the baby! Then Sunday we went to church with the family and then were able to meet up with some friends of ours that we all went to church together when J and I were dating - although I was a bit bummed I forgot my camera :( But hopefully at Thanksgiving we can all get together then and give some others a bit more notice so they can come too. Then that evening we had an early celebration of J's birthday and Nanny and Ed and Dee were able to come over to help celebrate. So we had a wonderful trip and as always so hard to come home. We got home around 6ish and had to unload the truck with the help of Jason's supervisor who lives down the street from us. My parents and Nanny gave us a crib, dresser and hutch...WOOHOO! Jason will start the painting soon and so there will of course be pictures to come with the progress of the nursery.
Here is a pic of mom and I at the shower...more to come after I have time to sit down and put them on the site...hopefully tomorrow I will be able to do so!
