Baby shower day for my friend Mandy!!

Her sister Gina and a few other friends made a 'coffeeshop' themed

baby shower, complete with a coffee bar! sooo yummy :)

Did you know that the 'life' of a coffee bean resembles our walk with Christ?

1. Coffee beans go through many roasting and filtering processes to have the richest taste. Zechariah 13:9

2. The Roast Master watches every stage very closely, and doesn't stop the process until the taste is perfect. Romans 9:21-23

3. Coffee beans are not left on the plant, but are made into a beverage that is to be poured out completely and enjoyed by others. 2 Timothy 2:21, 2 Corinthians 4:7

4. If coffee is not packaged properly it will absorb odors from other food items stored near it.

John 17: 13-16

My other friend, Cara and her nephew Luke, kindly posed with Sophia and I.

2 aunts with their respective small adorable relations :)

Cara and her husband Michael are expecting a baby girl in a few months!
