Due to Doctor's orders and travel restrictions beginning the week of Thanksgiving Chris and I had a lot of pre-holiday traveling to complete. We wanted to make it back to both Indiana and Lousiana prior to the travel cut off. We went to Indiana the first week of November. We had a great time visiting many family and friends at our couples baby shower hosted by my sister, Charlotte with help from my mother, aunt Wanda, and Aunt Gale.
We were spoiled during the shower with many cute matching outfits for the boys, two car seats, a pack and play, toys, blankets, gift cards......the list goes on an on. Some who were unable to attend the shower even sent gives to the house which was a surprise. I am awaiting pictures of the cake table and my family to add to the blog as the didn't end up on my camera.
After our return from Indiana we had one full week to rest and then headed to Lousiana the weekend before Thanksgiving. Again we were blessed to spend lots of time with family. Dinah hosted a shower for me with help from Chris' mom and a few others. Of course in true Slidell fashion there was TONS of food! We enjoyed playing bingo, typical shower games, and we received many nice gifts. More matching baby outfits, toys, blankets, gift cards.....
I didn't realize how many things we would recieve! It's so great to have supportive families on both sides. It really eliminates many of the things on our list to buy before the kids arrive.
Thank you all again for all of the love and support. We can't wait for our first trips back to our home states with the boys next year!!
