Diaper Cakes and the Winery

Need an explanation for that title? Ha! Of course. This past Saturday was a busy one for me. I helped to throw a baby shower for our FRG (Family Readiness Group) and had plans with friends later that night to meet up at Jazz on the Lawn, held at the local Winery.

We have a baby shower every spring for those ladies who are expecting or have had a baby recently. This year we celebrated NINE new babies! What a fun time to share with these special ladies.

Here's a photo of the adorable diaper cakes that Michelle (my FRG Co-leader) and I made. We were so excited to give them to the girls.

 

 

Each "cake" had a core of diapers, wrapped with a receiving blanket and topped with ribbon, tulle, and either a wash cloth or wrist rattle. They were completed with a ribbon wrapped around them and baby's initial. They were SO fun to make!

 

From the baby shower I ran around like a chicken to get supplies and pick up the kids for our evening plans, where we met our friends at Jazz on the Lawn. So we spent the evening listening to fun music and sweating! WHEW it was a hot one, but it was great to spend time with Amie, Josh and their boys, Michael and Jayden. All-in-all, a fun weekend!

And off to the Winery we went.

We even had a little critter friend come to visit us.
