Sundee's Baby Shower

I helped throw a baby shower for my sister in Vegas on June 15th.  It was a coed shower, so Braden and I headed to Vegas while my awesome mother in law stayed home with our girls.

It was a lightening fast trip.  We drove up Saturday morning, making it in great time, 3 hours and 45 minutes.

I was in charge of decorations, so once we got there, we set everything up. I was really proud of how everything turned out. 
Of course we served Mexican food. Delicious tostadas.



I was especially proud of my center pieces. The idea just came to me at midnight one night.  I had a bunch of left over tin foil cupcake holders that I pinched into flower shapes and then let them float in water. Already had the ribbon that luckily matched perfectly, and vases. Then I topped them with mini tissue paper balls that cost 12 cents a piece to make. Talk about cheap!




The tostadas went perfect with our virgin margaritas.  PAR-TAY!!!!

 Adam and Ashton.

Best picture ever. Thank you Mike and Sundee for making me giggle.

 The next morning (Father's Day) we went to breakfast at Hash House a go go. SO SO SO GOOD. Next time you are in Vegas or San Diego, it is a must.  Lucky for us it is literally 1 block from Sundee's, so we got there before it got too crazy busy. The portions are H-U-G-E and absolutely scrumptious.


We drove back right after breakfast, picked up the girls, and then drove back out to Corona for a Family Fathers Day dinner. It was our first trip without the girls, and I must say I enjoyed every minute.
