Just Among Friends
Pink was everywhere in the Kelly and Barrett Little home on March 20 when Payton and Georgia Little were honored with a baby shower. They are expecting twin girls in June. Payton Little is Barrett's brother.
Payton and Barrett’s mother came from Arkansas and helped Kelly decorate her new home in the Bethsaida community for the shower. The dessert table was covered in a pink cloth and had twin pink vases of pink and white flowers with baby's breath in them A cake frosted in white with pink decorations and the words, “Oh Baby” written across the top layer was the centerpiece. Plates and napkins carried out the “Oh Baby” theme. A variety of finger food was served from trays including sugar cookies iced in pink. It was a beautiful table
The guests enjoyed visiting and eating the delicious food after which they watched Georgia open many thoughtful and lovely gifts. The twins already have names, Paige Ann and Londynn Lee, and will arrive with a precious pink and gray nursery which has been lovingly prepared for them. They will have a big brother, River, who is two years old. How exciting!
