Surprise Jaime!

My unexpected, special day...

Beautiful flower arrangements done by Kara A sign in the lobby with my name on it, so special! How gorgeous is this "table scape" of hot pink and zebra with cupcakes from Suzie Cakes, my fav. Jessica had filled party favors of hair care in tin box's and I had the extra big round one with special goodies and my invitation in front of my seat.

My amazing friends from left: Angie, Jessica, Kara, me, Joyce, Melissa and Keli. What a beautiful gift table, only better when I opened everything. Chocolate and Vanilla cupcakes from the one and only Suzie Cakes.

Yep, that's what happened when I thought I was going to a little breakfast to catch up with my girls. It was a surprise baby shower for myself and our new little one on the way. I was so caught off guard, I was speechless, doesn't happen often, numb and with tears. The plan was actually very different than I knew and Jeff was totally in on it. He was excited to hear my reaction and thought it was totally funny I didn't know. When Keli picked me up I told her plans have changed and we were going to go to the Balboa Bay Club. This was actually the plan the whole time because they know my favorite breakfast is there. Its an amazing french toast with a special cheese and ham in the middle over a raspberry preserve with strawberries all around the plate. (scroll down and there will be a picture) I found out later that as we pulled up, Joyce was right in front of us and I never even knew. Keli got a call from Angie in the car, she talked illegally on her phone so I didn't hear, and they wanted her to stall because they were still decorating our table. Later, I do remember her walking really slow reading all the signs and then she passed a sign but later we found out it was a sign for me. It said, Jaime's Baby Shower, with an arrow pointing in the direction to go. It was such a fabulous morning I can't even express it. Besides the wonderful company, food, decor and scenery, the gifts they all brought were way to generous and at that point I had to hold back on my tears. The baby had extraordinary gifts but I was also very spoiled. I feel like I have the most amazing people in my life who are so loving, selfless and beautiful. It is one of my prayers for our girls that they are as blessed as I am. I loved the small intimate setting but only wish everyone I knew was there because it was such an incredible day.
