Skype Shower...

Yes, you read that title correctly. We had a shower this past weekend by using Skype!!! I'm telling you, technology is an AMAZING thing :)

A few of my friends from Houston got together and offered to give us a shower. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to travel since October. So my friends thought it would be a clever idea to have the shower anyway, but use Skype so we could "be there" and enjoy the conversation and fellowship.

David set us up at our home in Jacksonville...

He put a TV tray in the middle of our living room for the laptop and he connected a speaker (on the step stool) so we could hear better and then used a special cord to project the shower on the TV screen. 

It was the COOLEST experience ever!! It was like we were sitting in the living room with the rest of the guests. David had some of the ladies get together so he could take a picture of them on the TV screen...

SO FUN!!!

Wendi, one of the hostesses, sent us some "real" pictures of all the decor. Look at all the yummy goodness they prepared for the guests...

Do you see the little A that is below the banner and to the right of the fireplace? Wendi's daughter made that A and wanted to display it for the shower...too cute! 

Although I was sad that I couldn't physically attend the shower in Houston, it truly felt as if I was right there all along. 

And once again, our friends spoiled us rotten with several thoughtful gifts that Addison will cherish for a lifetime. I can't wait to tell her how loved she was before she even arrived on this earth.
