A Celebration for Lucy~

Updated: I forgot to post a picture of the cute invitations to the shower. The fortune in each felt fortune cookie had all the shower information on it, and each arrived in their own small pink take-out box. They were just adorable!



My sweet friend Candy gave me a shower over the weekend to celebrate Lucy's arrival. We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends and family looking forward to her homecoming.






One of the special things Candy planned was to have each lady prepare a scrapbook page with a wish for Lucy that she will assemble into a scrapbook of this special day.
