Party colors were pink and white. Decorations consisted of the hanging pom poms, the pink and white tree (can't wait to take that one down), and the light pink roses.
For the food we had ham and cream cheese wraps, veggie bars, fruit salad, pink grapefruit, mini tortilla cups with artichoke dip, and chicken strips on a stick with almond sauce. The dessert was the pink chocolate fountain with fun goodies to dip in like rice crispy treats, angle food cake, strawberries, cream puffs, etc. We had a warm mulling spice drink and lemon water for liquids. Many who came appreciated what we had and took some home to their families.
For a game we played gift bingo while Amy opened her gifts and had some great candles and spa gifts.
The party favors had a little handmade glass magnet and poem (that you can read when you enlarge the collage picture), that went with the lullaby theme.

You did such a good job with the shower. It was a lot of fun. Thanks for teaching me how to make pom poms. Now I can spice my parties up like you do. :)
