Shower #3

I know what you're thinking... 'how many showers is this girl going to have?'
Well, all i can say is it is a direct reflection of the Father's Love for me :) You may be familiar with the scripture..."above and beyond what you could ever ask for or imagine.." well that's pretty much how i've been feeling throughout this pregnancy!
The Lord has blessed me with good friends and a wonderful church family, and this past weekend they gathered together for a baby shower for Baby Landis. The word overwhelmed comes to mind as i sit and reflect back on the abundance that was simply poured out! There were 25-30 ladies who gathered to share stories (which i will refrain from posting for all the world to read....) to pray for me, matt, and our baby, to eat- of course, and to shower the baby with yet more gifts!
I was truly surprised and amazed at how so many went together to help purchase several of our larger items that we needed! We got our jogging stroller, our high chair, our swing, and the most needed car seat! And then all the other individual gifts we received as well! I think our registry is about cleaned out by now!
Anyways, i wanted to post a big, big thank you to Dawn, Jolanthe, and Kristy for putting it all together, and to all the other ladies that came out to enjoy and share in the afternoon! I, once again, felt so loved and blessed by the fact that each of you would come and bless me in such a way!
Here are a couple of pictures, thanks Brittany for taking so many! There is also a link on the right "Shower 3" if you want to see more.
