It has been a very busy baby shower season at my backyard this summer. This latest installment was for my really good friend (and our FAVORITE photographer!) Amanda. Since it is a surprise what they are having (a really fun thing for them, by the way), her sister Rachel came up with a "candy" theme. It all started with a "sucker" invitation and grew from there! We served brunch, and cupcakes or cake for dessert, but the fun part was the candy centerpieces, the suckers lining the yard and the "candies" hanging from the tents. We played a memory game where clues described a particular candy - way fun and way, way creative - and a partner competition matching and folding socks within a time limit. They were two new games that got a great response. With only two hostesses (plus some generous help from a good friend) I wasn't able to manage many pictures during the event, but be rest assured we had a lovely time, we spoiled Amanda with some great gifts, and (maybe the best part) got to visit our own "candy bar" at the end to take away some sweet treats.
It was truly a very SWEET day! I loved every minute of it and truly feel blessed to have you as a friend! Love ya!
