A SWEET friend

My dear friend Karen is about to birth her THIRD child. (Eek!) She went on and on about how she didn't want any kind of a big deal or anything, and I agree that while a big shower inviting everyone you know, probably isn't the most appropriate for the third child, we wanted to celebrate her and this sweet baby boy, who is due at the end of February.

I've seen so many Sweet Shoppe things on Pinterest, and Karen is a lover of all things sweet, so this seemed perfect. With the help of THIS BLOG POST (seriously, go check it out. Incredible!), Marlee, Sarah & I gave it our best. As an aside, poor Sarah. We asked her to make a banner, and she totally stepped up! Huge thanks to her AND Marlee. Those girls ROCK.

I'll stop talking, because who cares? :) I'll let the pictures tell the story.
