Jo's baby shower
This afternoon I threw a baby shower for my friend and business partner Jo (who is due in a week or so). She knew it was happening but didnt know who was coming. It was a beautiful day, infact in the morning I was worried it was going to be too hot as unfortunately at the moment we dont have an umbrella in the garden but it turned out just fine, warm with cloud cover and the sun poking through occassionally.
I used our vintage china from http://www.teacupsandtiaras.co.uk/ to decorate the table and we had a cream tea lunch with a selection of sandwichs and home made scones also home made cup cakes (althought slightly cheated with the decoratiosn as they were supplied by the lovely http://www.cupcakestogo.co.uk/).
It was a lovely chilled afternoon catching up with friends!

Samuel David Forbes Parker
Sammy boy was christened today at St Andrew's Church in Hove at 12.30pm by Father Jonathan. It was a lovely service although Sam fell out of the pew and got a big bump to his head whilst we were singing along to 'All Things Bright & Beautiful'. After the service we all came back home to celebrate with lots of food, drink and 'Sam's sweet shop' - which the children and the adults seem to love.
It was fantastic weather for November so we ushered everyone into the garden for Tim to give a short speech and toast to our little fella - Sammy boy. We also sang Happy Birthday to Grandad as it was his birthday this week. Everyone then danced to 'Reach for the Stars' which is now becoming a Parker family tradition! At tea time we did present opening and Sam got lots of fantastic gifts, so thank you all for being so generous.
Everyone had left by 8.30pm and the house looked like it had hosted a really good party... plus I think our recycling has never seen so many empty bottles, I think there will be a few sore heads tomorrow morning! Thank you all for coming and hope you had a good day celebrating the beginning of our little fella's life.
