Baby Shower - April 15, 2007

**Please click here to see more photos from this shower on shutterfly.com**

What another really fun baby shower! My sister Nicole threw us a shower at my dad's house in Newcastle and once again we are blown away by the generosity and thoughtfulness of our friends and family. What a blessing! My sister did a wonderful job with the food, decorations, and a unique baby shower activity: Theme CDs! Anyone who's heard about "Gravity Theme Days" will know I love a good theme CD mix. Guests at the shower got into teams and drew a "theme" out of a hat and then had to come up with 10 or so songs with that theme and decorate the CD label and cover art. Everyone did a really impressive job coming up with great playlists and creative artwork. Then my sister gave me an iTunes GiftCard so I could download the songs and have 5 totally awesome, personalized CDs. Here are the teams and their lists:
