the baby shower

It was SO much fun to surprise my family at the baby shower. I was very sneaky and didn't tell a soul. I walked in about 30 minutes late while everyone was sitting down to eat and shocked the living daylights out of them. The shower was at Rachel's mom's house and it was a HUGE crowd (= lots of great presents!) She is the oldest of her siblings and the first grandchild on her side to have a baby!! She is going to make the best mama ever (and Tim will be a so-so dad. jk.)
Their baby is one lucky little girl!

This is my favorite face in the group picture.
Can you believe those gorgeous blue eyes are for real?
Debbie's girls are so delicious!

For those of you who know my brother Tim, this picture is SO him (wearing the diaper cake on his head.) He is such a great brother to me and we are going to miss them lots and lots!! They are taking a long vacation in Europe and then moving to Michigan!!! Tim's a big Ford man now.
