The food, the hostesses (4 out of my 5 aunts)


The girl cousins that could come, the ladies in my unit


Opening presents, the beautiful quilt from Aunt Debby
Once again I am overwhelmed with the love shown toward my growing little boy (and me and Brandon). Saturday, November 27th, the Manuel family gathered for a book shower at Aunt Debby's house. I love all the books and other little goodies that I got and can't wait to share them all with sweet Henry. Aunt Debby made me a beautiful quilt with Henry's family tree - HOW SPECIAL! Another highlight: Mom gave me some books that I authored when I was in elementary school. Ha! We enjoyed looking through those. I was so glad that Grandmommy's caregiver was able to bring her. Thank you, family for that special day. Everything was lovely.
