Sprinkle

My mom and sister threw a "joint sprinkle" for Melissa and I. Being that we are due 3 weeks apart, it only made sense! We had a great time celebrating at the beautiful Grand Tradition in Fallbrook.  

The biggest treat, under the most awful circumstances, was having our best friend Lindsay and her girls in town from Virginia. I'm so sad to say that Lindsays mom passed away unexpectedly on March 2. Christie had a unique and beautiful spirit that I'm certain is still surrounding her beloved daughters and granddaughters. 

I'm so lucky to have two amazing best friends.  

Another special treat was having my Grandparents, Aunt and Uncle visit from Texas. 

The El Paso Baby Shower

As promised, here are photos from the gorgeous shower my mother-in-law threw for me and Santiago in El Paso on February 12. My extended family lives in Texas and I was so thrilled to have my aunts, grandmother, mother and cousin come to El Paso to celebrate.

The shower had a Heart/Valentines theme representing both the time of year and my HLHS baby. Everything about the shower was so wonderful and thoughtful. Delicious food, lot's of sweets, stunning decor and most importantly family and friends showering us with love and support!
