look whooooo's having a baby (not me!)

some days, my street seems like a little slice of mayberry...  may 19th was one of those days.  i walked maybe 12 houses down to arrive at a baby shower being thrown for my friend brooke, who lives next door to the house where the shower was held.  and i would have normally stopped to pick up my friend margaret on the way, who lives a mere 5 houses down from me...but she was hosting so she arrived early.  i mean, how fun is that?!  i really love 'ol longwood drive.

fabulously convenient location aside, this shower was just the essence of southern style.  i loved every inch of it.  for the invitation, we used the ever popular chevron style invitation with a little owl motif...

the wise old guy served as the theme for the shower, boosted by a coral and aqua color palette.

"baby pennington" is called BP for short...

and can you even believe how chic this mama-to-be is?!  i walked in and exclaimed how cute she looked, demanding to know where she found such a darling maternity dress.  she replied, duh - the reason why this is so cute is because it's not maternity, it's marc jacobs!!  should have known.

eleanor, annie and margaret (the margaret who also threw this amazing shindig too.  girl is a born hostess!).

brooke and kaki sharing a laugh while opening presents.

this might be my favorite picture - brooke was super excited about this gift because the store was featured on teen mom. :)

i can't wait to stroll on down the street to hang out with BP once he or she arrives!!
