So my sweet sweet neighbors, who are always thinking about others, had a baby shower for me & Jacob. They all can't wait for him to arrive. It was at the OTHER Melissa's house. She made some homemade Lasagna and we had garlic bread, a special MP block salad, and some cute cupcakes with the letter "J" on them. No games were needed here, as we always just have a great time when we are together. Again, I am overwhelmed by the gracious generosity of so many people. These fabulous ladies gave me another car seat, another noise maker, a bunch of those little needed items you need when having a baby and a basket full of pampering items (along with a pregnancy test) and a gift certificate to get a pedicure. (My poor feet are in bad condition)
So apparently, Target doesn't do a very good job of keeping track of what people have purchased from their registry. So I of course had to take back a few things, but was able to get a stroller and some other needed items.
After the baby shower was done, we turned our attention to Lisa, who is the Monarch Palm Queen. I put together a Monarch Butterfly themed photo album, with a sweet message from each one of her friends here on Monarch Palm and some great pictures of our wonderful memories together. She couldn't even read it, which was fine, because I think we all would have been in tears. So we took a walk down Monarch Palm to see how the movers were doing and to say one last good-bye to our cafe. We called her table and chairs that were out front our cafe. When you got a text that said meet at the cafe, we all new what that meant. She even had us all sign it.
Thank you Ladies for everything!
