My daughter's baby shower
  • We drove to Independence, MO on Sat morning to go to my daughter's baby shower at her in-law's house. She is due Aug 19 and is going to have a little girl.
     
    Before Kylene opened gifts, we all decorated onesies. That was fun and some people really came up with cute ideas. We used markers, buttons, ribbons, etc.

    This pic includes the father to be, Ryan. He had taken the guys to a friends house and they had been partaking in some adult beverages and swimming in a pool with 3 golden retrievers that joined them. Yes, the dogs were in the pool.

    Kylene with 2 of her cousins, Kristen and Kelsey. I think they are all beautiful young women!

    After the shower, we had BQ. Yum, Yum

     
    It was a 3 hour drive for us, so David and I, my son, my daughter-in-law, and my grandkids all spent the night at the Super 8. We went back to Don and Joyce's, the in-laws, and all ate breakfast together on Sunday morning before we headed back home. Kylene and Ryan had flown from their home in Chicago to KC, so in two weeks a friend and I are going to drive to Chicago and deliver the gifts. This summer is going to be so busy!
  • How fun!  Thanks for sharing pictures of your beautiful family.
  • What a great family!  What a big baby bump! [':)']
     
    You and your daughter are such cuties!  Two peas....
  • Thanks for sharing. Looks like you all had a good time. Kylene looks just like you. Aug. will be here before you know it and you'll be meeting your new Grandaughter.
    Congratulations!
  • What fun and great pics, My daughter in law, Katie is being induced on August 7th and it's a boy!!! yeah.  The name will be Ryland Seneca.  No shower since it's her fourth, LOL but I did buy her a double stroller.
  • Thanks for sharing.  Great pics and congratulations on the grandbaby on the way.  My husband is from Independence.  His mom live there and we go up (from San Antonio) every 6 mos or so.  Frankly more now that she is advancing in age.  Anyway, the point is, we love Independence.
     
    You may be making this trek more now when the little baby girl arrives!
  • My daughter actually lives in Chicago and her in-laws live in Independence. Kylene and Ryan flew down to KC from Chicago, so she asked me if I could drive the gifts up to her. That trip for me will be next weekend. Thu is my regularly scheduled day off and I am taking a vacation day off on Fri, so it will be a long weekend. David didnt' want to take any vacation days, so a friend is going with me. That will be about a 9-10 hour drive for us. Then in a couple of months when the baby comes, David and I will get to make that trip again. I sure wish she lived closer to us!
