Happy 90th Grandma

I don't normally put Happy Birthday wishes on my blog, just because I'd feel terrible if I forgot someone! However, this is a milestone - so I wanted to wish a very Happy 90th Birthday to my Grandma Sally! In celebration - here are some of the quilts she has made over the years for us.

Me with my quilt handmade by Grandma, which unfortunately burnt in our house fire when I was in second grade. I'm so glad I have a photo of it though :)

Me & Murray with the quilt Gradma made us for our wedding!

Genevieve with the quilt made for her by her Great Grandma Sally.

I LOVE my quilt! YAY :)

The Baby Shower!

Sunday my lovely Mother-in-law Lyn and Sister-in-law Helen threw me a baby shower :)

Gorgeous details were all over the table when we arrived - like these pretty gingerbread cookies

& a rattle

and a bottle (this is the one I took home - SUPER yummy tasting too!!!)

The yummy cupcakes inside those gorgeous boxes!

And lots of lovely prizes for the games!

We played 'the price is right' - where we had to put baby items in price order (it was SO hard!)
A fun 'fill in the blank' nursery rhymes game

and one of these bottles was filled with a candy called milk bottles - we had to guess how many it was filled with

The shower was at The Victoria Room in Darlinghurst - such a lovely place!

Lyn and Jocelyn

Megan, Laura & Selina

Me & Anna

Nicole & Cassie

Selina, Helen & Me

Anna & Steph

Laura, Selina & Helen

The food was AMAZING!!!!
Fancy sandwiches (with no crust of course!), fancy desserts and scones with jam & cream
Yumm yumm yumm

I must say my favorite was the red velvet mini cupcakes - I had 3!
Everything tasted AMAZING!
Also we had a fancy tea menu to choose from - of course I had a chai latte and oh my gosh it was fabulous!! A really fun high tea experience!

Cute - I love red as a gender neutral color!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh - Sparky has so many gorgeous new things to wear now!

Something about the nappy bin is funny I guess? It'll sure come in handy that's for sure!

It was fun to read all the cards

Me with the gorgeous nappy cake from Steph

Another gorgeous nappy cake from Cassie!

Opening the fun gift from my Mom

Helen also got Murray a gift - this fluffy koala mat for Sparky! SO cute:)

It was SUCH a wonderful afternoon - I can't thank my lovely in-laws and friends enough for spoiling us so much! Sparky says thanks too!! :)
