My mom hosted a baby shower for me yesterday -and it was wonderful!
It was held at a restaurant down in our neighborhood – the whole restaurant fits 20 people, so we were the only customers. We had a four course meal (baked pear salad, pan-fried scallops with risotto, rack of lamb with roasted yams and lavender chocolate creme brule!) lots of good conversations, good company, and of course, presents! We had pictures of the girls all over the tables and everyone commented how much they have grown and how happy they look…
Mm mom actually planned a game for the shower — she was all nervous 
(“Do you know the last time I was at a baby shower?!?!? I was your age!!”) but we never got to it – lunch was 2 hours and then the presents. So later in the evening after friends had come over for tea and the menfolk felt safe to emerge, we played it with Jrock and Dad! lol
Thank you so much to all my wonderful friends who made it out and celebrated with me. My mom (and dad, who came for the meal) commented on what an eclectic and wonderful group of friends I have. I truly do feel blessed to have such amazing women in my company in Kelowna!

What a wonderfully elegant baby shower! Kudos to your mom.
So sorry I missed it. I would have loved to have been there. I’m glad you had the opportunity to have it with both your friends and (some of) our family.
By the way, what was the game Mum planned????

It was “name the baby of” …
a horse?
an alligator?
a goose?
etc.
Pretty fun.
Sounds like you had a lovely time! The menu sounds awesome! Creme brulee is my favourite!
Glad you had a chance to celebrate with your friends
