The night before the shower, we went to Leah's for dinner and dessert of frozen bananas. Yummy. Elli and I spent the night so I could help decorate and get the place ready for the next day.
Leah opening the monkey quilt made by Aunt Sharron. She made two of them a couple of years ago knowing one day they would go to someone special who needed two. Amazing how that came true!
I had Jeni make these onesies So cute!
Another huge pile of presents. Leah and the twins are definately going to have the things they need and plenty of what they want as well.
So, mom made the cupcakes and I iced them. I realized at 9:30 Friday night that the pacifiers were missing. Heather went looking for some the next morning, got lost and we ended up sending Matt out to get them. When I uncovered the cupcakes I realized the icing was sliding right off of them. It only took about 5 minutes for the cupcakes to loose thier faces:( I was so sad so I put them in the refrigerator to try to save them. The chocolate fountain wasn't working either so Matt went to the store to try to get more chocolate. I had a casserole in the oven that baked for 2 hours before it was done. Then, we realized we forgot the cinnamon rolls. So, many things went wrong, but once everyone got there, (after several groups got lost) we had a lot of fun despite:) Why does it seem that when you want everthing to be perfect, things go wrong? Oh well, it was a great day. It was just fun to be celebrating these baby boys with Leah and friends and family.
