When I was home in Colorado earlier this month I had the great pleasure of attending Traci Remley’s baby shower:) Traci is a childhood friend of mine who I hadn’t seen in about eight years.  Other than the fact that she had a different last name and a baby bump she looked and acted exactly the same as the Traci I knew so many years ago. Walking into her parents home in Sedalia I was flooded with memories and tried my darnedest not to start tearing up from happiness and making a scene! Traci immediately came over and gave me a big hug and we caught up on life. She had a good crowd of ladies there including her best friend Heather who is also pregnant! Both are having girls that will be about a month apart, which I think is just so perfect! Traci and her husband Kyle will be naming their baby girl Luci and she is due in October, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that’s she’s born on my birthday 10/10/10!! Here are some of my favorite images from the day….

Heather made Baby Luci this adorable letter “L” to hang in the nursery.

Meet Tamale (Molly)  and Skyler…….some of the cutest puppies ever!

Jan, Traci’s mother, was truly glowing with happiness!

These ladies are so stunning! Beautiful light and beautiful ladies, I couldn’t ask for more!

Traci and her sister Shena:)

Ok so all of a sudden out of nowhere there is a donkey ass that just popes into the frame, and Traci and I just start cracking up!

Turns out it’s Jan’s donkey Hoodwinked that is just grazing in the yard as we were taking pictures. Apparently it liked me because it followed me around the entire yard!

Gorgeous…….that’s all I can say.

I had such a wonderful time and I felt incredibly welcomed by Traci and her entire party. It was such a lovely day and nothing beats seeing a wonderful friend so happy.  Thank you Traci for inviting me to share in this day with you and I can’t wait to meet baby Luci:) 10/10/10!!! Also today is Traci and Kyle’s 2 year wedding anniversary so I’d like to wish you both a huge Congratulations!
