May Day




11 years ago Griffin had his first babysitter, one of my Beehives. She was 12 years old and her name was Ashley Chapman. She became a beloved sitter to all my children. I've watched her blossom from Beehive to teenager, Prom Queen to Newlywed. Now her name is Ashley May and she is expecting her first baby boy named Baylor in a few short weeks.


It's a real shock to see her entering that same stage I was, in what seems like just yesterday!!
She now lives in a darling house within our ward and has graciously helped me out from time to time watching the kids overnight when we've been away. She is a fabulous shopping partner, style analyst and confidant. I am blessed to have her as a friend!

What a darling shower. I love the trucks! Ashley couldn't be cuter, even pregnant she's as cute as it comes. I'm so happy you have a "sister" in the form of Ashley.

You are the queen of baby showers!! I have never thrown one..can you believe that?! Well, I helped mom w/ Linnys, but none of the creativity was mine. If I ever do throw one, I will be calling you for help!! Ashley is so cute! How would it be to look like that at 8 months pregnant!!

I wish I could have been there! Ashley told me how cute (of course) you made the shower. How fun!
