Calla's Baby Shower

On June 23, Susan and I went to a baby shower for Mary Stowman. Mary used to work with Susan at North Star Lodge. Mary's baby, Calla, is due in August. There were several people at the shower, which was held in Moxee. It took Mary quite some time to get through all the wonderful gifts she received.

For one of the games, each of us had to cut a piece of yarn that we thought would be the same size as Mary and the one that guessed the closest won a prize.

The party favors were very cute. Each little box had some mints in the shape of baby rattles, a makeup mirror, lotion and a mint, all with individual custom labels.

Debbie, Kay and I went together and got the baby this little play gym. Susan gave Mary a music/recipe CD.

For another game, each person had to try to pick very small safety pins out of a bowl of rice while blindfolded. It was much harder than it sounds.

Everyone had a nice time and it was wonderful to see Mary again.
