Surprise!

Last night we threw Jen & Mark a surprise baby shower at the Thurik's house. Since they are in town for Christmas, and in the UK they don't have baby showers, we thought it would be fun if we surprised them with some baby goodies and had a proper baby shower for Jen with all the baby shower essentials; cupcakes courtesy of Leah and a bunch of decorations and a wonderful meal from Frankie's Pizza & Pasta. As the night went on the guys had a bit too many shots of whiskey and tequila and it turned into what they refered to as a "man shower" and what the girls would refer to as a "s$#t show". It was so fun to all get together while Jen and Mark were in town - Dett was also in town and that was truly wonderful to all be together again. I think they will have to purchase another suitcase before they leave tomorrow as they got a ton of cute baby clothes from all of us - I will leave it up to Jen to post the sex of the baby as they found out last Monday before they left for Seattle. Get a load of Jen's belly button on the second picture and our see-threw outfits - this had us laughing for a good 10 minutes.
