You Scream, I Scream, We All Scream

For Ice Cream!!!

That’s what the theme was for the shower I had this past weekend, and it did not disappoint! These ladies thought of every little detail, and there were so many toppings and choices that it was so hard to make up your mind of what you wanted. Not to mention that they could have fed a small army with the vast amount of ice cream and selections! It was beyond what I could have ever expected.

In downtown Brewton, there is this lovely little building that is now known as the L House. It has extremely tall ceilings with brick and large bookcases flanking the walls and lovely wooden floors. If you remember, it is where we had my mom’s 50th birthday party.

Classic blue hydrangeas were placed in mason jars that were wrapped in burlap and raffia to add a centerpiece to each table.

Signs like these could be found in various places around the building to display where I was supposed to sit, to signal a slippery surface outside {since it had been raining}, and to label food.

My sister made this cute bouquet made out of onesies, washcloths, receiving blankets, a hooded towel, and hand mitts. Loved it! It was a surprise every time I opened one up. I never knew what it was going to be inside the roll!

And check out this cake! The lady who made the cake at the shower that was at our house made this one as well!

And the ice cream bar was terrific! The pictures didn’t even do it justice!

Ice Cream Social Baby Shower

It was nice not to have to fill up on the typical shower foods…especially when we had all just eaten lunch. Instead, we got to enjoy dessert!

The presents did not disappoint either! Colby and I are so thankful for everyone’s generosity. I was a bit worried about not having so many things before this shower, but we really do have almost everything we need. Of course, there are always things that we will still need and will have to buy, but we mostly have the necessities. Thank you to all of the hostesses that made this such a wonderful experience and a big thanks to all of those who came to the shower {or sent gifts}. You are such a blessing to us!
