Anna sat 2nd this year in Youth. They played Jupiter- Holst and Brahm's Symphony No. 1 in C Minor, Op. 68 (the Adagio; Allegro non troppo, ma con brio)

Amyann's baby shower!!

This past Saturday, we threw a baby shower for Amyann (my sister-in-law). It was a fun time of games and fellowship. The first game we played was one you're all probably quite familiar with. It involved guessing what was written on the piece of paper pinned to your back by asking 'yes' or 'no' questions. To narrow it down, it was all under one category...baby things. :-)


Chloe and Charity asking each other questions.





Ruthie sure enjoyed all the attention!!

The next game we played required paper plates, markers, and a good imagination. ;-) You had to draw a baby on a paper plate on top of your head. No peeking!!!

OOPS!!! I think Kayla got a little off!!


Not bad, Chloe!! Considering you can't see what you're doing......

Kayla, Chloe, Aunt Michelle, and Grandma Chambers laughing at some of the results of the 'baby drawing' contest.

The 'present' table

Sara made an adorable little 'diaper cake' for the occasion!!! It was SO adorable!!

Isn't that the cutest!?


Diapers, diapers, and more diapers.
While Amyann was opening presents, the rest of us played Bingo!! On a piece of paper, in the form of bingo, were all the gifts Amyann was receiving. Whenever she opened one, we got to mark it off on our sheet and whoever got 5 in a row won!!

Afterwards, we served refreshments.

Thanks Sara for all the hard work you put into planning this shower!!
