An Italian Themed Baby Shower

What an amazing baby shower this was!!!  Steve & Alison are some of our very best friends and have been for years.  They are finally joining the rest of us in extending their family and we couldn't be more excited for them.  A few years back they took a trip to Italy and, of course, fell in love with it.  They decided to take one last trip before trying for a baby and...surprise...she got pregnant while in Italy!!!  So it was only appropriate that Cara Garland, who planned the shower, went with an authentic Italian theme!

My favorite part was all of the details that were put into making this shower what it was.  Cara...you honestly did a fantastic job and everything looked so beautiful.  

Cara enlisted the help of and creativity of some great companies:

Thank you to all of the friends & family who made this day so wonderful!

Steve and Alison, I can't wait to meet little Jacoby...you have fought so hard for your family and are now going to see the fruits of your labor be passed down to your children.  You both are going to make amazing parents!!!!  I'm so glad to be in this time of our lives together!  Love you both very much!

You can't tell here but sisters, Alison and Natalie are pregnant together!  Natalie is just a little ways along in her pregnancy but how fun to be pregnant with your sister at the same time!!!!

Cara had water bottle labels made of actual pictures Alison took...little Jacoby's ultrasound and his name written in the sand on their trip to Hawaii.

The family...three of these girls are pregnant at the same time and one had a two week old!  How amazing!!!

So excited for all of you...what a fun time in life!

Alison has craved pickles while being pregnant and Patti, her mother-in-law, makes the best pickles...so we only found it appropriate:)
