Yesterday, several friends and I had a baby shower for our dear friend Courtney (who is from Mississippi but currently resides in Kentucky!) She came home for a week or so to get in some visiting time before having the babe and being unable to travel for a while.
Her baby shower ended up being SO MUCH FUN! She’s just about the cutest pregnant person I’ve ever seen, and she got some really great stuff for baby Charlie (who is due early December.) We went with a woodsy theme for the shower because… well, it just seemed appropriate! Court’s husband is quite the outdoorsman so we have a feeling Charlie will be, too. 🙂
Thanks to Jessica Holmes for the great photos! (Want to hire her for your next event? I can get you her contact info!)
The mommy-to-be is here, and looking smashing!
Three of us all had different (yet similar) Vietri patterns, so we mixed them all together for a little interest.
Jessica’s hubby was so sweet to cut all these tree stumps for us. We used them all over the shower! (Here, we used one to display one of Court’s favorite foods: Doughnuts!)
What better way to welcome baby boy Jones into the world than with blue Jones sodas?
Our cake, which was a bit of an experiment, ended up actually working out! We made the trees out of colored white chocolate and found the deer on ebay!
We ombre’d the five thin layers on the inside with shades of blue and green
Piece of cake!
For the favors, we packaged up seed bombs with moss and sweet little tags, designed by Jessica!

Thanks PulpArt for the great, colorful seed bombs!
If ever in the market for plantable blooming paper, I highly recommend PulpArt! Martha over there runs a beautiful etsy store and has a wide variety of pretty plantable things! 🙂
I’m so excited for Courtney and cannot wait to meet baby Charlie! One thing I know after this shower is that he will be a really well-dressed little fella! 😉 Thanks, Court, for getting pregnant because we all had a BLAST getting ready for this shower!! 🙂
