A Baby Pumpkin Patch

Hi Ladies,

Happy Fall to you all! Today was a very exciting day... Baby Shower Day! My best friend Sarah is having a precious baby boy. He is expected to arrive into the world on Christmas Day. Could there be a better gift on Christmas? Fall is a season of love for me and my girlfriends. Fall is when we all met each other at UK, fall is when we tailgate, go to football games, spend time at Keeneland, play outside, fall is the time when weddings have happened, when we carved pumpkins, we could jump in the car put the windows down and sing at the top of our lungs while the crisp breeze rolled across our skin, fall today was a day we celebrated a new chapter... babies. I am so excited for Sarah and Matt and their son to be, Mr. Carver Mclin Pank. I was so happy to see Sarah and of course talk everything baby boy today! Emily Bradley, Emily Kapp and myself hosted our Fall Baby Pumpkin Shower at my mom's house. My mom cooked the most delicious "baby sized" foods. As many of you know my mom is pretty much the best thing on the planet. Please enjoy the pictures of everything baby, fall, and friendship below.
