We feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends who hosted a fabulous shower for us last weekend. We have only lived here for a couple of years and was so touched that so many people who we have not know us for very long spoiled us and the girls. Vito's mother, sister and her family live nearby so we even had a few family members in attendance.
Amanda and Paige (the fabulous hostess's) made the cutest invitations, wonderful food, and even had some pictures of the girls around. Every detail was so thoughtful.
The girls now some new clothes to wear, kid friendly shampoo, cute barrettes and headbands, new dishes to eat with, and new piggy banks to save their money in. I don't think we will need another book for a long time and we have all sorts of new games we can play with the girls. They each now have a bike to ride around the neighborhood, new sleeping bags to use camping, personalized beach towels to take to the beach and toys galore to play with. They will each have their own necklace with an initial charm-we will give these to them before we go to court.
We even received a pirogue maker with all of the ingredients and private pirogue making lessons from some friends. I will get the freezer stocked up before we leave!

What a wonderful evening spent with wonderful people who showered us and the girls with so much love! We can't wait for the girls to meet them all!
Oodles and oodles of gifts!
Amanda lamented cute little posters with picture of the important things we need to tell the girls. These will definitely be going to Poland with us!
Little girl stuff is so cute and fun!
A new princess bike!
Piggy banks to help teach the girls how to save! 
How awesome!! You guys got some seriously adorable and thoughtful gifts. You may have not been there long, but it looks like you already have some great friends.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a fun shower! It sounds like the girls have a lot of great new friends to meet when they get home. You received many wonderful gifts for your precious girls.
ReplyDeleteLove it!! Everything from the piggy banks to the tea set are so cute! The cupcakes look good too! Lol.:) It's obvious your girls are loved already, what a beautiful community for them to be welcomed into.:)
ReplyDeleteThose are such amazing gifts. I got so excited looking at them, I can't imagine how excited the girls will be. Candy Land was my favorite game. A friend of mine turned her backyard into a candyland game for her daughter's birthday party. When you're ready for that info, let me know.
ReplyDeleteA pierogi maker!?!? How cool! It looks like you have enough ingredients to make and freeze some for a whole year!
So nice! I love the pierogis ingredients!
ReplyDeleteThis is so wonderful! How totally fun! I just can't imagine their excitement when you skype with them next and show them all this great stuff! Or do you think you will keep it a surprise????? Oh, so fun!
