Twin Girls Baby Shower!

My dear friend Jennifer is expecting twin girls and Jodi and I threw her a cupcake and polka dot shower.  I really had fun with this shower.  I am a detailed person, very driven to do my best.  She got tons of great stuff and she deserved it.  She is such a blessing in my life and I love her dearly, her husband even left me a very sweet message on my facebook yeaterday thanking me for all my hard work.  It makes all the hours spent on the little things so worth it. Here are some pics from the shower. A huge, I mean huge thank you to my wonderful Aunt Debra for doing the invites, and Jodi, it was a pleasure working on this shower with you. Almost forgot thank you to mom, Kendall and Lily for helping me get all the cupcake picks done. Also I recieved a sweet gift from Jennifer for giving her a shower.
This is Jennifer
These are the favor boxes with pink cupcakes with a "Thanks a Bunch and the date" sticker to match



We spent over 8 hrs. baking cupcakes. 200 cupcakes, We made white with vanilla buttercream icing, Banana cupcake with honey, cinn frosting, chocolate with chocolate buttercream icing, coconut with cream of coconut squeezed inside, with coconut buttercream icing, and lemon with lemon glaze.
 
I ordered the polka dot balloons online. I am in love with them.

I painted this block. It took forever, it will be a one of  a kind.



I made the banner, it is my favorite project so far. She will be putting this up in there room.

Cupcake picks for all the cupcakes




Also the pink flowers are Martha Stewart paper flowers.

here are the presents





 I made her Thank you cards, I think I made her 4 or 5 different kinds.


My sweet gift I recieved.

    I am a friend of Deb's and she sent me the link to this post. I am doing a cupcake theme gift for my granddaughter's upcoming birthday & Deb shared what you had done.

    I love everything you did with the shower! How cute everything is. I love the boxes, the cupcakes, banner... everything!

    Thanks for the inspiration. Hugz, Diane
