The Shower!!

Thank you to all of those who were able to come to the shower and those who were unable to attend. We are overwhelmed by your generosity. A special thanks goes out to Jennifer who prepared all the games and prizes, Emily who brought the cake, and Mom, Muihrienne, Elizabeth and Daniel who helped with all of the last minute decorating and details, and Alise who made it all happen.
