Relay, Showers, & Cookouts...Oh My!

My, my, what a busy and fantastic weekend! It all started with The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life 2009...it was a huge success. Team Angela was there for the 3rd year in a row under our "Angela's Shrimp Shack" tent. It all went really well! THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED AND CAME OUT TO SUPPORT TEAM ANGELA!!

We had a cookout on Saturday...and yes, Daddy made his famous hamburgers! YUM! It was so much fun! Eric's parents came to Carrollton for their first trip and we definitely had the weekend action packed for them. We showed them the town and introduced them to our closest friends and family...it couldn't have been a better weekend.
The uncle-to-be!! Carson made his way from Athens to Carrollton to join the festivities. He was able to come show his support at the Relay on Friday, help me prepare for the day on Saturday, enjoy the fabulous food Saturday night and Sunday morning (brunch...Thanks, Mom!) and above all, Carson felt his little nephew kick and turn over in my stomach. It was great!

The shower on Saturday at Jerri Garner's house was great!! A special thank you to all the hostesses! The food and great company made for an amazing time. The outfits and gifts we received were precious...I can't wait to dress the little man!! I know I have some competition out there with several of my friends who have boys, but our baby boy just may be the best dressed baby out there! :)
The parent's-to-be and grandparents!!

The shower on Sunday was so much fun! This was a joint shower with my cousin, Ashley, who is also expecting a little boy. We are due only 7 days apart, her's being June 2 and mine June 9. We are both very excited! I really appreciate everything everyone did for the shower! We are so blessed....

The expecting Moms!


Thank you so much to everyone who made this weekend so special. Eric and I couldn't ask for better family or friends...you all mean so much to us...And a special thank you to my Mom and Dad who did everything in their power to make this weekend amazing, with so much preparation...it turned out fantastic! And another special thank you to Eric's parents who came all the way down to GA from OH to spend the weekend with us---Thank you!! We love you all...
