Northern 'Southern Gentleman' Baby Shower: The Party!

I am originally from Ohio and have lots of brothers and sisters who still live up there. Justin's brother's family also lives up in Ohio, so it was fun for our family and friends up there to throw a shower for us, so that we could celebrate with all of them. The shower was hosted and held at one of my brother's friend's house, who has become a close family friend for to our entire family. My little brother and sister came from college and even some of my close and very dear college friends who live out of state, traveled all the way to Ohio for the shower!

We had a great time at the shower just relaxing, catching up, eating the delicious food and feeling very blessed by everyone who spoiled our little boy. My little sister, Stephanie, did a great job documenting the shower on my camera, so I will let the pictures do the talking!
