The decor was amazing and tailored exactly to Kelsie’s tastes. All your work was done from the heart and could not have been more beautiful. Your daughter is fortunate to have such a devoted, talented Mom.❤️

You have given me the perfect idea for a baby shower for them. 😊 I have not heard of the open house showers before you enlightened me...best thing ever!!!! I also love your floral arrangements, especially your lighted "trees of life". ❤ I think I know what you were trying to say about them and I was teary eyed with you. Thank you for sharing this part of your beautiful daughter's baby shower, she's glowing! I love your videos and I thank Jason for his service to our country!

The last baby shower I went to had so many people in attendance that I never did get an opportunity to even speak with the expectant mother. I had made her a beautiful blanket and never even got a thank you note. I’m not sure she even knew I was there! Your idea was a much better concept.
