Wow, crazy couple of weeks… I helped host two baby showers. One for my niece Erika, who is expecting a baby boy in September. And the other for my sister and brother in law, Sandy & Chad, who are expecting a baby girl this October. How truly blessed I am!!
Erika’s shower was held at the Port Huron Golf Club and as usual the food was fabulous! The table decorations were a bit unique. While shopping at one of my wholesale florists at Eastern market in Downtown Detroit, I found these tin frog holders which we filled with a calla Lily plant. They turned out to be adorable and were favored by those who won them as the door prize. Erika received many wonderful gifts that will help her get started into Motherhood.
Sandy & Chad’s shower was much more casual. We invited family and friends to a backyard B.B.Q. shower that was hosted at my home in Livonia. We used real linens, ate off china, and drank champagne from my finest glasses. Having picked the hottest day of the summer, we decided to serve Amish marinated chicken kabobs, brats, and many fresh salads from the fruits and veggies we bought fresh that morning at Eastern Market in Detroit. Thank goodness for the afternoon shade and for a house with air condition!
Congratulations to both couples!!! I cannot wait to meet the new additions to our family!! xo
