Alabama shower

Today was my shower in Alabama. My wonderful friends/co-workers threw this one.

Here is the yummy cake. It was chocolate....too good.

Here is everyone hanging out and watching me open presents.

Here I'm complete with a silly tiara they made me wear that says Mom to be and a flashing button.

Look Dan, we finally got some underwear for Alex.

Here I am with the girls. They all helped throw the shower. The only ones missing are Dee and Elizabeth. This was a different kind of shower. Since I'm not pregnant, we skipped the games and had hard liquor, wine and beer instead. Needless to say, this was a long shower, lasting over 4 hours. Of course, Alex got lots of nice things, too many to picture here.

So we are down to less than 2 weeks until we leave for China. I still have tons to do. Monday, I'm having the carpets steam cleaned. I still need to wash clothes for Alex and decide what to take. I have tons of shopping for the trip left as well. I may not post much before the trip, but rest assured I will keep you up to date.
