It's been a long time since our family has had a baby in our midst, so I was excited to prepare cookies to share at my nephew, Bill, and his partner, Amy's baby shower.
Grandma Rita wanted to add some "bling" to balance the dark wood tables at the venue, so "rose gold" coloring was the challenge for this set of cookies. So much love went into preparing for this special event. Rita made table runners, a special diaper cake, and baked dozens of cookies. Bill's sisters and nieces prepared the invitations and decorations. "It takes a village" is how our family functions.
Grandma opted to have a sweet table filled with a variety of cookies. I "specialize" in frosted sugar cookies, but my sister, Rita, is the real baker in the family.
Bill managed to handle being the only man in a room full of women! Amy and Bill are pictured here with nieces, Leann and Mary Grace, Bill's sisters, Heather and Jody, and the Grandmas "to be."
