Baby Shower a Success




Well, the baby shower was a success. It was really fun. It was held at a scrapbooking store, which I thought was a really neat idea. While we all sat around and ate and chatted, we were also working on a "friends" themed scrapbook for the guest of honor. Everyone made two pages to be included in the book. At the end, she had a completed mini book with pages her friends had designed. They even brought a digital camera and photo printer so they could take a picture of each of us with her, as well as the pictures we brought along. I think I might need to get me one of those photo printers. They are so portable and handy, and the pictures were very good quality. I could really use something like that for my job. After the scrapping, she opened her presents. The basket I made was a big hit. I may have to make some more of these, with ladybug or Asian fabrics. They make great toy baskets, or even laundry baskets. The downside of the whole thing is that now I am exhausted. It really took a lot out of me. Now I have to find the energy to go and exercise. We skipped yesterday and I really want to keep up the good groove we have been in.

Me again..."anonymous" baby shower girl. Scrapper, I'm flattered that my picture made your blog. And now everyone can see how totally cool that basket really is. And, yes, I have every intention of using it for toys! I'm so glad you were there and that you enjoyed yourself!
