Exciting Weekend!

We had a very busy but exciting weekend. Friday night I met up with the girls from my soccer team for dinner and a baby shower at Abuelo's. I hadn't seen any of the girls since I had to quit playing at 6 weeks pregnant so it was wonderful to see everyone again and catch up. I don't think I realized just how much I've missed those girls. We had so much fun laughing and talking and catching up on each others' lives. I can't wait to start playing again after Neptune arrives!

Little Miss Neptune loves Mexican food so she was in total heaven all night! The girls were very generous and gave Neptune loads of toys, gear and bath items. Daddy was very pleased to see the Ohio State blanket when I got home!

Thank you ladies for being such great friends! I can't wait to join you back out on the field!

Nick's family threw me a shower on Saturday afternoon. The theme was the Secret Garden, just like Neptune's bedding. If you've ever been to a Bryant party, you know they know how to do it up right! Everything was adorable from the flowers in teapots on the tables to the butterflies and flowers hanging from the ceiling. They really went out of their way to make everything perfect for me and for Neptune. The food was fantastic and the baby carriage cake was this amazing strawberry cake with strawberry filling. So good! The generosity of everyone there was truly touching. Neptune received so many gifts they took up a good portion of Tracy's dining room! I had such a great time yesterday sorting through everything and playing with all of the fun stuff. I didn't take very many pictures but will post some as soon as I start to get them from other people.

A big thank you to Mike and Tracy for hosting the shower in their new home. I know how much work you guys put into getting the house ready in time. Everything was beautiful! Thank you also to the ladies in the family for making my day so special. Nick and I both really appreciate all you do for us!
