SPRINKLED WITH LOVE!

This year, the most genuine couple was recruited to work at our school.  Their names are Zach and Sarah, and we bonded quickly over parenting, Survivor fandom, and jigsaw puzzles.  Their first baby (ahhh!!!!!!) is due the first week of May (YIPPEE!!!!!) and Emily and I called dibs on planning their baby shower :)  #partyplanningcentral   

When we had our pre-shower planning session, Sarah said she is a fan of two things:  COLOUR and SPRINKLES.  With Pinterest being only a click away, a "Sprinkled With Love" theme was born almost instantly.  Em arranged for a massive Bulk Barn bag of sprinkles to be picked up in Amsterdam over Spring Break and the rest was.................HISTORICALLY DELICIOUS :)

Here are some pictures from the party!  In retrospect, we should have called Guinness to set a new "MOST SPRINKLES CONSUMED AT A PARTY" title.  Oh well.  Next baby ;) 

 ^^^  You have no idea how many circles sprinkles are STILL taped to the wall.  Juliet took care of removing the lower ones.  I did the mid-section.  And I think I need to recruit all of the tall people in the building to remove the rest ;)

 

^^^  Water bottle labels are part of our signature party package.  This party was no exception :) 

 

^^^  Sprinkle center pieces.  Because....it was a SPRINKLES PAR-TAYYYYYY :)

^^^  Shower favours.  I wonder which day we will be lighting these candles.....

^^^  There were also sprinkles inside the batter, just in case you were curious. 

^^^  Gluten free, chocolate chip cookies dipped in white chocolate and sprinkles :)

^^^  Sprinkle popcorn!  Drizzled with melted white chocolate and.....SPRINKLES!!!!!!!  Vigorous shaking was required, but worth it :)

^^^  Lastly, a sprinkled table top.  Because.....IT WAS A SPRINKLE PARTY, you guys! :)  #WhereWasGuinness? 

And because I'm a total nerd and I can't find a picture of Emily and I with the Mama-To-Be (WHAT?!!!), this post-shower picture of Juliet being obsessed with me (in Phil's absence, of course) will have to do.....

^^^  I love the very rare moments when I get to be the FAVOURITE! :)

Thank you, Zach and Sarah, for giving us the JOY of planning your baby shower!  We can't wait to welcome Baby Timothy into this world.  He or She is so loved already and.....although we are far away from the place we call "home"....remember that there is such a thing as a "Kuwait Family" and you THREE will always be apart of ours.

XOXO
