Guys. I LOVE throwing parties. So when my college bestie was pregnant with her first BOY and we finally lived in the same state again I was ALL OVER throwing my first BOY baby shower. I went with a woodsy fox theme. Unfortunately my pictures of the party are limited and let me tell you why. Last year I was in Hawaii with my family and I saw a crab on the beach. My sister and I started running after it (couldn't tell you why) and my phone hopped right on out of my pocket and into the ocean. Technologically challenged people like myself probably also struggle with the concept of "the cloud" and therefore my pictures were not backed up. It was a tragic loss. I ate a whole box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts. The ones with caramel obviously. And I didn't share.
Said college bestie recently found out she was pregnant with another boy so I've got baby showers on my mind. And you all get to hear about it!
The table....my favorite part of just about every party.
I love photo booths. Crucial part to any party.
My people: Holly (left) the college bestie who is about to make me a godmother of 3!!! Thank you BYU-Idaho dorms for providing me with a friend for life and someone to eat the brownie edges so I can eat the middle. And Katie (right) the sister and ever faithful, ever supportive voice of reason and assistant. Like really. I haven't done a single party without her. She tells me I'm cool even when I'm not. That's a winner right there.

Those fox sugar cookies were SO FUN to make, I obviously need more practice but who knew what you could do with royal icing?? I also did little individual bean dip cups. When I say "I" what I really mean is my sister, Katie. Katie is my official party throwing go-to. She goes shopping with me and keeps me in check when I want to buy every thing I see. Then she comes and helps me set up, take down and in this case....perfectly fill a million layered bean dip cups. Like a boss.
This is by far the easiest and cutest snack,,.cut fruit in waffle cones! I also love this little sign from Hobby Lobby. (Hobby Lobby is an example of a place where Katie needs to accompany me to keep me from buying the whole store.)
Who knew it would be so hard to find stuffed animal foxes...IKEA finally came through for me.I love photo booths. Crucial part to any party.
