Colbi's final shower

We had our last shower last night with the 'Hood', which is always a fun time! The fun thing is that now everyone is starting to have kids, so now all the "kid's" kids come too! There were four little toddlers running around last night and it was SO entertaining.

Our friends Rhonda and Steve hosted the shower along with three other ladies. Rhonda's house is so nice and they live in the same town we do, so it was convenient! 

We had a nice dinner of Eddlemon's (it's awesome BBQ in Grand Prairie), played some games, and opened gifts! 

 Uncle Dave reading to Avery. 

The hosts had a great idea, instead of bringing cards everyone was asked to bring a book with an inscription written inside to start Colbi's book collection. I LOVE that idea! So did the kids! All the kids were playing with the toys and books, especially Avery! She found a "Melmo" book and kept taking it to adults to read.




 The sun is glaring in this picture but their pool is A-MAZING! 



 Avery is the only girl in the group but she sure can hold her own! She is one smart little girl!

All the hood parents, it's a bad picture but the only one I have. We sure do appreciate all they do for us!

I must say, we (Dave and I) feel a little guilty. Colbi has gotten so much stuff. We literally don't have anything else to get for her. Between all the showers, our friends and family have done so much for us. We are so blessed to have so many amazing people in our lives who care and go out of their way to make Colbi's arrival so special. I can't help but be so incredibly grateful without feeling guilty. I know the only way to keep saying thank you is to return the favor for other's in my life. 

I'll leave you with a video of Miss Avery. Enjoy!
