This weekend was a lot of fun. We made our long trek up to NY and NJ for our baby showers. It was a lot of driving around, but it was worth it.
First, we had our shower in NY at Lillian's Restaurant in Saratoga. My mom, sisters, some aunts and cousins came; along with some of my good friends from up there. We had a nice brunch, played some fun games, opened gifts and caught up on things.
That night mom, Cheryl, and Kristyn threw me a mini "30th birthday" part with dinner and presents, and leftover cake from the shower.
Later that night we drove to NJ and stayed with Matt's brother, Andrew, and sister-in-law, Lauren. The next morning we made a quick stop to visit my dad in PA, where we had breakfast, talked, and opened gifts for Ashley.
Then off to NJ again for another shower with Matt's parents, grandfather, aunts, uncles and cousins, and some of our good friends. It was a great turnout! We had a nice lunch, visited and caught up with everyone, and opened gifts. We were so grateful to Matt's aunt and uncle for opening up their house to us for the party.
The next morning we stopped in Philly and had breakfast with Matt's grandfather before heading back on the road.
Although it was lots of driving and running around, it was so nice to be able to see most of our loved ones and share our excitement with them. Thank you so much to everyone who helped plan our showers, and to our friends and family for sharing in such a special time for us!
