Last weekend, the "Girls" threw a baby shower. Now this wasn't just any shower, this one was for our much anticipated twin boys, who are due to arrive in early January. Mom looks fantastic and is so organized, though none us are surprised by that. They have a ton of loot though definitely not enough diapers. The party-goers consisted of our friends from college and the two grandmas. Friday night, TD and I made all types of appetizers; mango salsa, mushroom spread, artichoke something or other, believe me they tasted incredible, I'm just not very good at describing them. TI was the ringleader, as usual, she found the perfect decorations, a brilliant cake lady and brought the beverages. LK made some diaper drum cakes, so cute, and organized our gift to the growing family. KA sent her good wishes from Atlanta and we all wished she could be there. Fortunately for JH, she had a personal gift retriever and opener, free of charge. EI is doing a great job at being the oldest cousin.
So after a wonderful day with our friends, my parting words to the boys were to wait for their aunt to get back from Europe before they arrive.

Awwww, so sorry I missed it.
I had heard Jen was pregnant, but had not heard it was with twins! How exciting for them! I also saw the early January due date. I know with twins they will likely come early, but do you think Jen will be made if I hope she's late and waits until my b-day (Jan. 16th) to have them? :) Dana
Pass along my congrats to Jen & Mark. Don't remember if I told you--we're having a girl.
