Today my great friends Mandy, Lennie, Emily and Becky gave me the most wonderful shower. I am in awe of how blessed I am to have such wonderful girlfriends! It was great to have so many people come together to support us as we add Silas to our family. People - the Groth house now has BLUE! It was so fun to open boy toys and blue clothes! We got tons of great things that we need like some cups, plates, clothes, potty seats, diapers, underwear and socks, toy organizers, a lamp, a riding toy, a car seat, bibs, a beautiful blanket my grandma made, the cutest stuffed frog my mom made, sheets...
We had brunch and my friends and sister made the greatest food. We had breakfast casserole, hashbrown casserole, cinnamon rolls, cream cheese and chocolate chip dip, fruit kabobs, orange cranberry scones, ham & biscuits and punch. It was delicious! We also played some really cute games. One was making different words out of Silas' Chinese and American names. The other two were adoption related. One was guessing if celebrity's were adopted or had adopted - my mom won which is hilarious because she probably didn't even know who half of the people were! The other was a memory game about what items we would need on our flight to China!
Overall, it was the sweetest, best celebration. Thank you so much to the hostesses - I love you all and am so blessed to have each one of you in my life!

I'm so sad that I couldn't make it but it sounds like you had lots of fun and got lots of good stuff! I can't believe you'll be leaving in 10 days! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help either before you go, while you're gone, etc.
