Barlow Baby Boy BOO Brunch

Yesterday I hosted the Barlow Baby Boy BOO Brunch after a string of baby showers for sweet little girls over the last several months. It was a nice gathering for Lonna and her friends (and mine). She gave me a somewhat little guest list, but we still had a decent turnout. A few more were here than I have pictures of. Since Lonna is due in October, I asked her if she would mind if I went with a fall or Halloween color scheme, and she was on board with the whimsical color palette. Take a look! Zoom in on Wilbur's board if you want to see the menu.






What a pretty mama!

Too bad I didn't capture a picture of Paige's "Daggers 'o Fruit," which went well with Michele's Pirate's Booty Dip (aka Hawaiian Fruit Dip...get it? Pirates find treasure in the Caribbean, or Hawaii...my friend thought we meant the other kind of booty...lol). Lindsay's "cowboy caviar" was a delicious success too.


Zoom in on the little black BOO buckets on the right of Lindsay to see what I served veggie fingers in, filled with carrot sticks, celery sticks, red bell pepper sticks, and grape tomatoes. I spotted these at Target the night before the shower in the "dollar spot" and had to get them since they say "BOO" on them!



Now we just need to cross our fingers that Lonna and baby do well until he arrives. Plus there's the suspense of finally finding out what names they choose for their little bundle of love. I can hardly wait. Good luck to you, Lonna!

Kelly, your table scapes are gorgeous! I have that plaid table cloth too - you probably told me where to buy it! I really liked the black table too - love the candle tree!

I also love your table art of the Salt Lake Temple - wonderful old photo!
