Sprinkled with Love

What a wonderful weekend! Not only did Phil and I get a ton done, with my mom’s help, around our house. But Phil even got his car seats inspected and mom and I got the entire house cleaned! That alone fulfilled my need for nesting more than I realized! But in addition to all that…my sister-in-law, Becki, and mother-in-law, Sandi, threw me and Elle a “Baby Sprinkle” (instead of a full-blown “shower”) on Saturday!

So many of the amazing women in my life were able to make it…even from up to 6 hours away! During the event I realized that all five of the women who stood with me before God, my family, and friends, six years ago when Phil and I got married, made it to the ‘sprinkle’! I was BEYOND thrilled! I even had to take a picture with all of these wonderful ladies!!!
Not only did I get that heartwarming picture, but we managed to get a giant group photo of everyone at the ‘sprinkle’! What a special memory…and what patient friends! Each person helped decorate letters for Elle’s nursery so we will have hand-crafted art for her room in the form of the entire alphabet on her walls! I can’t wait to get everything hung up! Each one turned out unique and beautiful!!!


The ‘sprinkle’ invite was so cute too and stated the intention of the ‘sprinkle’ perfectly…
 
 
Ribbons, booties, and diapers galore,
Phil and Michele are having one more!
Big brother Rock has plenty to share,
It’s only a ‘sprinkle’ to show that we care!
Butterflies, bubbles, blankets and bows!
Let’s sprinkle Elle from her head to her toes!

Thank you God for the blessing of our family and friends, who threw the party, who travelled short or long distances to attend, and who each made a lasting impression on my life this weekend and in years past. What a wonderful weekend!!! (Oh and Elle was spoiled rotten by all of these lovely ladies tooJ)
