Surprise!

Today our vicarage church completely surprised us with a baby shower after the service. It was really thoughtful of them and no one can believe that they were all able to keep it a secret! We enjoyed cake at the church and then an hour of opening gifts and cards at home - after a nap, of course. Even Cade got a couple of books and matchbox cars. I am truly amazed at the generosity of the people here!

The balloons that got away!


Cade's first matchbox cars


One of the cakes. I'm not sure what kind of message they are trying to send us with this one :)

too fun, and how nice that you got to take the presents HOME to open! (rather than being forced to grin for over two hours of opening gifts from people you still dont know their face! :) Countin down the days!!! :D

yeah, it was perfect! Especially since there were like 80 cards to read. Except now we have 200ish itty bitty paper dipes.
