Showered with Blessings...

I was quite "showered" with blessings this weekend...

-friends and family who showered this Mom, Dad and Babe with lots and lots of warm hugs, good wishes and kind gifts.

- those who worked hard planning a party, making scrumptious food and beautiful decorations.

- soft, cute things

- not so soft, but quite necessary things

- lots of meaningful-handmade-with-love things

- strength to get through (no, ENJOY!) the party, despite being  sick

- a beautiful, beautiful day of sunshine and just-right temperatures

- a special delivery gift, handmade by dear friends(just wait till I snap a photo of this!)

What's going on back here? :)
