yesterday i went to see my sweet friend katie. she is the most amazing cake decorator. seeing her cheered me up. we came up with a design for the lil buckaroo baby shower to celebrate cheryl's sweet baby boy who is due in september!
these are the invitations i made by hand for her. i LOVED how they turned out. my favorite part was using the cowprint fabric for the ribbon ties. james' favorite part was that i finally used my fancy cutting machine to cut out all the little denim letters! :)

cheryl is doing baby boy's room in a western theme, so we decided to carry that over to the baby shower. i didn't want to go overboard though. i went with sunflowers, raffia, bandanna prints and a little bit of denim. this was where we had the cake set up. i also had really cute sunflower cupcakes made. the vases were too plain, so i dressed up with burlap and the matching paper that i had from the invites. i tied raffia around it and put three huge sunflowers in them. i picked up the pony as soon as i saw cheryl register for it. i knew that i wanted it to be a part of the centerpiece!
yum food. the corn dip was to die for. seriously. i think i ate most of it.
chili and cornbread muffins
along with all the other goodies alice, marie, and i got for cheryl, i wanted to do something special just from me. i found casey the cow and then i made her burp cloths. i hope that she knows just how excited i am for her family and looking forward to watching this little boy grow up.
