Lynsie's Baby Shower

A couple weeks ago I planned a little celebration for my sister and her 2nd baby! I had so much fun planning, decorating, and baking. With the help of family, and of course Wes, we were able to throw some cute things together. I'm so excited for my sister and her new baby boy...he's gonna be ADORABLE! He's due just next week. I hope Lynsie felt special and loved on this day! I definitely had fun trying to make this shower as lovely for her as possible.

Here are some pics...

For the lemonade I took the super easy route and bought some Country Time lemonade mix (added a little extra sugar for added sweetness with the slightly tart fruit). Mix it with cold water in a big pitcher. We had three flavors: regular, blackberry, and strawberry...I used frozen bags to save $. For the fruit flavors, pour the lemonade halfway in the jar and add desired fruit (that way theres room for ice without it melting while the fruit soaks in the lemonade). Right before guests arrive add ice and straws!
