An Air and Water Show Baby Shower

Yesterday was our "Stock the Bookshelf" baby shower for Baby Nickels, who is estimated to be around 6.5 lbs and Julie is hoping that he holds that weight steady until his due date in two weeks. Lisa and Rebecca hosted us at Lisa and Matt's "Pub Neenan" (the best pub in town) so we got to enjoy each others' company and the Air & Water Show.

Lisa and Matt cooked us up an amazing meal of crawfish cakes, a fresh greens salad with walnuts, goat cheese, and new potatoes, and grilled corn on the cob. Delicious. Rebecca made a gorgeous fruit salad and brought the best mini cupcakes I've ever put in my belly. I didn't take any pictures of the food because I was too busy eating it. Sorry.

We ended the night hanging out on the Pub Neenan terrace, eating pizza (that's what happens when your hosts feed you at 2 p.m. and you are still at their house at 8 p.m.) and drinking beer (or white wine spritzers...whatever). It was a perfect day and night and it was just what I needed to relax before classes start on Monday. Oh, wait. Monday is tomorrow. Crap. Gotta go.
