Because giraffes are cute

Le former roommate had her baby shower this weekend. Chocolate fondue, giraffe decorations, cute little baby girl clothing, and all. Her baby is going to be so stinkin' cute.

Aren't these the most adorable little shoes? Donnie's mother made them herself! She's considering opening an Etsy shop to sell them, if any of you mamas are interested...

Isn't this the cutest idea? Take baby clothes, stuff them with rolled-up diapers, and put it in a baby bath covered with a fuzzy blanket. I need to remember this idea because it's so stinkin' cute.

This picture is wonderful because of the giraffe balloon sticking up behind Donnie's head.

This one is even better. 'Cuz of the balloon, of course.

Donnie, I miss your face.

Especially because of this picture. You know it's golden.

Also, baby showers make me want to go out and buy every single cute baby outfit in the world. Just a side note.

A Belated Weekend Update

I know, I know. All of the "what I did on my 3-day weekend" posts have already been posted. Except mine. Because I'm actually trying to not procrastinate my school work for once, and so my blog is suffering.

Anyways...

I got to see The Phantom of the Opera on Friday night! It was awesome!!!! And it was a BYU production. My college is just that cool. Two things: first, the guy who played Phantom should just hurry up and go to Broadway already. His voice is amazing. Second, the guy who played Raoul (I'm friends with him!) is sooooo short, but he is so good at hiding his Australian accent. You couldn't even tell he's an Aussie. Honestly.

The 3-day weekend was also filled with two baby showers, one of which was for my sister-in-law! She's due in a little over a month. I'm going to be an auntie! I cannot wait to meet my first nephew.

Also... owl-themed baby showers? So cute!

There was a make-your-own Cafe Rio chicken salad bar.
For those of you who don't live in Utah and have never tasted Cafe Rio... I pity you.
Their dressing is amazing.
I was one happy auntie-to-be.

It was a busy, busy Saturday... and a very busy Monday filled with rehearsals for the play I am stage manager for... but it was still an enjoyable 3-day weekend.

New goal: Don't neglect my blog so much.
