Chelsea’s Shower: Celebrating Deacon Ann

I have been praying for this baby for a lonnnnng time…long before she even came to be. I am so excited for the Hall family & it was an honor to help shower her sweet Mama.

Chelsea is so dearly loved by so many. She is just one of those people whose light shines and she draws people to her. She has always made me laugh and been a very good friend to me in the years I have known her.

I can’t wait to meet ABC Mama’s “D” child!

The shower was a great turnout. We used the theme of the nursery for the shower. Invitations came out super cute! We used navy & coral.

My mom was the mastermind behind most of the planning. She is seriously a party planning genius & all the cute tribal stuff was her idea.

Laura made all the cute signs (pictures with Scriptures) and the letters spelling her name. Chels took those home as gifts to put in the nursery. Love that idea!

The girls put balloons under their shirts and said they were pregnant too. So cute!

I’ll have to get Laura’s mom’s punch recipe and post it here….it is seriously SO good! I drank 3 glasses of it…ha.

My nieces were such a big help setting up and cleaning up too. Love that mom brings them around & let’s them be involved. Maybe one of them will take over her party- planning skills? She could seriously rock a business if she ever wanted to!

Aren’t these waters cute? Duct tape.

Her sweet Mama is recovering from back surgery so Chelsea didn’t think she’d be there. Angi surprised her & Chels was SO happy to see her! Beautiful!!

Chelsea has the sweetest testimony about baby Deacon already, and I was so glad she shared it with everyone. It is such a sweet story of God’s faithfulness and answered prayers. That precious baby is already so LOVED (just like her mama!) and I can’t wait to see how the Lord uses her to change the world.
