A Welcome Colleen Shower!!!

Yesterday my best friend, Wenda, had a shower to welcome our precious new granddaughter to the family! It was wonderful and our daughter, Tracy, got some beautiful gifts. I just wanted to share some of the joy with you all. The cake was beautiful and delicious with a strawberry filling. Yum!
 This is SOME of the stck of gifts!!!

 We started oit with wonderful fruit and yogurt.
 Then Tracy opened all the gifts. I am not posting every picture or we would be here all day:):)
 This is either a robe or cover up, with a hood. SO cute!


 Tracy loves owls so loved this cutie.

 These 2 were some of the guests! They had so much fun with.....

 This tulle!!!
 Colleen now has a piggy bank.
 And she got a tiara that Mommy tried on.
 Her first little purse. I would like to have one of them too:)


 One of the outfits that I got her. I also want that jacket:):)

 Her own shopping cart!

 Sleeping bag.
 We also had delicious quiche and salad

 The table and chairs for her tea parties.

 Time for CAKE!!!
 Tracy and me
 Since Colleen wasn't there, I wanted to share some pictures of the night before when Joe and I babysat her.

 She is my doll baby and I am so grateful to God for bringing her to our family. For those who don't know, Tracy and Dave are adopting her. It will be final on Dec 5th.
  Thanks for your visit,  And thanks to all of you who have been following this journey and all your love and support. Colleen is truly a gift from God.

    Colleen is a lucky little girl to have been celebrated in such a wonderful way! She certainly will be a well dressed little sweetie. She has truly blessed our family by bringing out so much love for her. And I am now a great aunt!

    I saw that pink jacket and thought the same thing...I'd like to have one just like it! So cute! All the clothes are cute, and she's going to be one stylin' little chick!!!

    It's so nice that the shower was so well-attended. Everything looked great, especially the food...so appetizing! The quiches were gorgeous! I've never made quiche from scratch, but seeing those makes it encouraging.

    As an avid football fan, I couldn't help but notice the overhead shelving with all the helmets. How cool is that??!?!!!!

    I'm so glad that you are getting to know and love that little girl. The blessing is a 2-way street. Enjoy yourself, Grandmama!!!

    So, so sweet! The love just pours through your photos and I have no doubt is a reflection of the love you share with others- coming back to you.

    And I would wear the jacket too!! So cute!

    Colleen will LOVE her sleeping bag! Perfect for visits with Grandma & Grandpa! The blessing of God's gifts of children continues to amaze me everyday! (We have 2 adopted girls who are now teens.)
