i’ve inherited some seriously cute friends this year…
{um yes, officially, one year in san diego! that’s nuts.}

i say inherited, cause they were friends of a friend to start.
and i can’t get enough of them.
they’ve just sucked me in like i belong and i love them for that.

my girlfriend lela, threw a darling shower for our friend carrie,
who is having a little girl.

since everything is better with a bird on it, 
the theme was “feather her nest”
and i had nothing to do with any of this cuteness,
except some chicken salad, and that i brought my camera 😉

i just love showers.


this tortellini salad i ate all night,
and they sent some home with this pregnant chick,
i apparently needed it…
liz’s completely naughty tortellini salad recipe here since you’ll need to pin it. it’s divine.
cute dude company…
 get this cute idea:
lela was gone for a few months {her husband is military}
and a friend there had lela’s SD friends send fabric to make her a quilt.
now that she’s back, they could all see it!
i love it. such a sweet idea.
 aren’t they all beautiful?
 the 4 pregos… i literally had to push mine out a bit
and felt a little silly even next to these gorgeous ladies….
{though i wouldn’t have to push it if we took one today!}
thanks, lela for throwing such fun parties.
i just love that i get to come to them!
