A million thanks to everyone who made yesterday's shower a success. It was so much fun!!

By yesterday I was seeing dinosaurs everywhere - even in water spots on my counter.......

DECOR PART 2




It will all come together Saturday, although I am sure it looks like a mess of this and that right now.

GAMES

So, Emily did not want games......

in lieu of those, I am doing the following:

We will have a canvas that I am painting orange. Adam is decorating the bottom with a brown, a green, and a blue dinosaur. Guests will be able to write messages or draw pictures on the canvas with Sharpies.

I am going to share a baby picture of Emily and a baby picture of Adam at the shower and their time, date, length, and weight at birth. I have a small book I am going to let guests pass around after that where they can guess George's info....and write advice if they want.

Also, I will have the "George Hoffman" letters for guests to decorate.

Otherwise, I am expecting about 30 or 35 people, so I think we'll do good just eating and opening gifts.

I am busy at work this week on the George banner and helping the kids with their painted gift to George (it has to be done in several steps).

I will be getting flowers and candles for arrangements/corsages on Friday and plan on white - let me know if you do/don't like that.

Also, I am just going to do plain colored baloons.

No one has vetoed anything yet,so I am assuming you guys like the ideas!
