Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

I was lucky to host a baby shower for one of my very best friends, Natalie! Her daughter Jane born March 13th (Four days late..) I cannot believe just how cute she is!! She has a head full of blonde hair and she is so sweet and well tempered. Natalie and her husband live in Denver so I don't see her very often- so of course it was awesome to be able to still throw her a shower! Natalie invited lots of our friends from High School that I hadn't seen in years. It was so much fun to see everyone it was like a mini reunion.
Natalie and I have millions of memories together. We went to high school together and we were on dance team together. We were always doing crazy spontaneous things. Anytime one of us wanted to convince the other to do something.. like skip class, jump off a bridge, take a road trip to Seattle or the Beach in the middle of the night or start of food fight.. (For example) we would say "Come on, GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN" and that would get us everytime...


Now we have both entered into the stage in our lives that we always dreamed about- MOTHERHOOD! Thanks for all the memories Natalie.. and heres to MANY MANY MORE! Friends Forever!!!

You sure have always known how to throw a good party! You are so creative. I love the banner (I'll have to remember that idea) and the food looked so perfect...you little Martha Stewart you! Jane is adorable. I can't believe all that hair. It looks like you guys had a blast on your cruise. It really made me want to go!
