Courtesy of my creative sister, Sarah, we enjoyed a suprise baby shower on Saturday, December 15th. John actually played a role in helping to organize the shower and I was completely overwhelmed and suprised. While we were very excited about our move to Minnesota, this has been a difficult move as we realized that our decisions were no longer about "John and Hannah", but also impacted the babies. It was disappointing not to share in the baby excitement with family and friends in a baby shower or to decorate a room for the babies since we are in temporary housing. But, this disappointment quickly changed to celebration on Saturday. Our MN friends, the Maymirs, stopped by to start off the suprise shower with a gift, decorations, and a suprise from John's two sisters, brother, and families. We received calls, cards, and gifts from friends and family members in Arkansas, Ohio, North Carolina, Texas, Louisiana, and Iowa. We were overwhelmed by the gifts and generousity. I am posting a few pictures from the shower below. Thank you all for the phone calls, cards, and gifts, we sincerely appreciate the thoughtfulness.
