Welcome to Leslie's Baby Shower

Surprise, Leslie!!!






This is your "bloggity baby shower", which is being thrown for you by "The Internet".

It all began when some of your blog followers got together and decided to create something that would bless you and your sweet baby, Cade, because you have blessed so many people. A secret blog was created, invitations were sent out, and the result was what you see now: a collaboration of efforts by people who have never met in real life but who were drawn together by their love for you!

The video below tells the story of how it came about, and introduces you to the friends behind this shower. We are opening this blog up to the public tonight, so in addition to the ladies featured in the video, be sure check out the comments here to see what other guests drop by.


For those of you dropping by to visit tonight, Welcome and Thank You for being part of our Showers of Blessing for Leslie and Cade. Please leave a comment as a way of signing our guest book (think of it as a giant greeting card for Cade and his Momma). While Leslie is opening her gifts, feel free to play our shower games (links below) and chat with us on the sidebar.


So, without further ado, let's get this shower started. To throw a proper baby shower you must have:


A Guest of Honor- Leslie


Gifts
sent by the ladies in the video, delivered by Leslie's IRL friend, Susan (Thanks!)


Treats
we couldn't figure out how to "share" these on the blog, but please feel free to indulge in your favorite treat while hanging out with us. Susan made the brownies pictured here to share with Leslie, Leslie's husband Nick, and their daughter Rylan.
