China Flower Shower

I really wanted to post about this shower before we left to China. However, due to time I was not able to and have ever since regreted it.  So here is what I wanted to post.  My two very best friends from grade school and two other very dear friends gave me the cutest and most thoughtful baby shower the Sunday, April 1st before we left for China.  They made the table decorations with chinese takeout boxes filled with pink tissue and a picture of our sweet baby on the outside with cute little flowers.  Attached to the boxes were pink, white and green balloons.  On the tables they sprinkled confetti flowers.  The invitation said something like April showers bring China flowers.  How darling and clever!  So the flowers in the confetti went along with the theme.  One very dear friend made mints and chocolates in all sort of baby shapes.  My other dear friend, who's name I dearly love too, made the cutest cupcakes with flowers on top to go along with the theme.  They spent a lot of time and thought preparing for this shower.  One of my best friends made the banner on the cake table out of scrapbook paper, how clever! I so enjoyed the day and loved every minute of it!
