Baby Shower for Eleanor!

On Saturday I had the honor of hosting a shower for my newest niece at our house.  It was so fun!




We had a menu of chicken salad croissants, lemon blueberry bars, tea biscuits and jam, fruit and dip, and mini quiches.  Then of course cupcakes and cake!



The beautiful mother-to-be!




My mom made this precious banner made from fabric!  I thought it turned out so cute.  I have given my order to make Walker one ;)







She had a great turn out with lots of family and friends! 


We had raspberry lemonade, coffee punch, and lemon water.  The coffee punch was a hit and it was such a simple recipe!  
8 cups coffee
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsps vanilla
2 cups milk 
.....and.......ONE quart vanilla ice cream 

It was super healthy, also ;)






Sweet high school friends and mamas



Eleanor got LOTS of great gifts!





The grandmother-to-be writing a note of advice to the new mama




Banks got Eleanor a gift, too!  He thought this Clemson cheerleader was perfect for her! 







The two grandmothers!


Sweet college friends that made the drive to celebrate the first baby of their group! 


Jordan's aunt, nana, and mother


Two cousins!  Walker and Eleanor will be just a few months apart...can't wait to see these two group up together :)


Jordan with her hostesses....Jessica (Will's brother's wife) and me











The daddy came after the shower to help load up all the goodies!  

This baby girl is sure loved and prayed over!  Just a few more weeks 'til we get to meet her and we cannot wait.  We had such a fun day celebrating Jordan and baby girl.  We love you Eleanor!
