In June Ashton and I went home to Florida and celebrated our baby shower in Destin.
The theme was “Bun in the Oven”  and my sweet friends and family went all out with the decorations and party planning! Ashton and I decided to wear matching shirts. Mine is from BabyTalkDesigns on etsy.com and Ashton’s is homemade!
 
The Bun Maker. 
My two beautiful cousins, Lauren and Kristen
helped decorate. They even designed this adorable fingerprint guestbook!

Nathan “signing” the guestbook.

Decor including Advice for the Little Bun MadLibs cards (again an etsy find!)
and ultrasound pics of our baby girl!

My awesome parents filling out the Advice for the Little Buns cards.

My super crafty friend Connie made the tissue paper pompoms and this adorable banner!
Check out her blog here: The Crafty Soprano
 
Extra large tissue paper pompoms hung from the lights and the table was decorated with whimsical touches including Snowballs and Cinnamon Buns on sticks. Babies Breath flowers and Diaper Candy, basically and easier version of a Diaper cake with rolled diapers inside a receiving blanket tied on both ends with ribbon, were the centerpieces.
 

Connie also created this adorable oven from a Martha Stewart tutorial online.
  
Dad and Uncle Dickie made the seafood boil with freshly caught Royal Red Shrimp! Yum!

Game Time! Becca chose fun baby words games and bingo and a (slightly) embarrassing game where she secretly wrote down my responses when I was opening presents and then read them off as things I said on the night the baby was conceived! LOL
 
Mom and Aunt Jeanine hard at work on the Baby Word Search. 
Connie won a prize!
Opening presents with Ashton. Isn’t it great that he was part of the shower?
(Although truthfully he hung out on the balcony with the guys during the games and “girlie stuff”) 
My Raspberry Cinnamon Buns were a tasty treat.
You can also wrap them up in goody bags and attach a recipe card!

My childhood fave: pink Snowballs!

We also served Florida Key Lime Pie and my famous Bacon Wrapped Dates!
 
 
           
Ashton made colorful fruit skewers
The guys loved the Southern Seafood Boil: 
spicy jumbo shrimp cooked with sausage, corn on the cob, onions, and new potatoes. 
Mom made a tasty Spinach Fruit Salad.

🍽 Yesterday we enjoyed lunch at NCAL+H2O, an upscale seafood gem of a restaurant in downtown Rolla. It was a delicious meal and everything this Florida girl has been craving! 
🐟 We started with an order of amazing Tuna Poke Nachos then shared a Grilled Shrimp Club sandwich with fries and a tasty salad with house garlic parm dressing. We couldn't stop there so we also split a bowl of cioppino, which was chock full of fresh seafood. Next time I want to try their Parmesan Halibut or Seafood Pasta! 
❤ If you are looking for a nice restaurant to celebrate an anniversary or have a quiet date night (or day date like us) check out @saltwaterrollamo ! 
⭐ Lunch was courtesy of @rolladowntown.  I was a winner of $100 in downtown dollars in their Tis the Season of Giving contest!

🥡 We tried @doordash for the first time during our stay in Branson tonight. It really saved us time and energy running around town and delivery was free! We ordered ramen, bi bim bap, and lo mein from a local Asian restaurant called Noodle 21. It was delish! Check them out if you are in the area and send me a message if you want a referral for $5 off to try #doordash ! @noodle21branson #eatlocal #branson #takeoutfood #whatsfordinner

Check out Casey’s new free curbside, available at most stores, and enjoy an easy and delicious Casey’s pizza night too! #sponsored #CaseysCurbside

Road trip time and #CaseysCurbside saved the day! We stopped at @caseys and stocked up on some supplies, including my favorite pretzels and juice from their new line of Casey’s favorites, before we were on our way. I love that I can order right on Caseys.com or via their app and pickup using their free and easy curbside. #sponsored
