Weekend Shenanigans: PARTIES!

It was a weekend full of celebrations!  Saturday I went to a bridal shower for Angie!  Angie and Ryan were good friends in college and now Angie works with us!  She is getting married in less than a month and it was super fun to celebrate her upcoming wedding!  It was the perfect day for her shower- so nice out and gorgeous!!  We had a delicious lunch and a relaxing afternoon by the pool!  I missed out on the bachelorette party but I figured 7+ months pregnant didn't quite make sense to join in on that fun- but it sounds like the girls had a good evening!  I'm hoping this baby stays tucked inside until after Angie's wedding in September! 
   Saturday evening Ryan and I went to Shaun and Justin's housewarming party.  My good friend Shaun and his boyfriend Justin moved into an adorable home near Lake Nakomis.  It has the most amazing roof top deck that overlooks the whole neighborhood!  It was really fun to catch up with Shaun and his family and meet Justin's mom too!  My parents joined the party too so after we left the new house, we headed to PF Changs for dinner.  It was fun to catch up with my parents and enjoy some really yummy food!

Sunday was our first baby shower!!  Liz and Dustin hosted a BaByQ for our little guy!  I'm not going to divulge the details- that will be in Tuesday's blog post but I will say Liz and Dustin hosted a great party- full of games and yummy food!  We had so much fun and baby Hannay is a lucky boy- we were blessed with lots of wonderful gifts and we have amazing friends!
Sunday evening we celebrated my sister-in-law!  Stephanie works at Accenture and was awarded the Jim Caldwell Leadership Award!!  Each year, Accenture Management Consulting in North America awards the Jim Caldwell Leadership Award recognizing a member of their practice that best exemplifies high performance balanced across value creator, people developer, and business operator.  Out of close to 4,000 nominations, Stephanie was awarded the top honor!  We celebrated her achievement with dessert and a little family get together!  Congratulations Stephanie- we are very proud of you!!

Excited to share our baby shower details tomorrow,
