Ok, so I know that "couples" and "baby shower" aren't really things that typically go together, but we're the Reis' and we don't like to do the typical thing. In Tennessee, I had a wonderful girly shower! It was so much fun having all of our TN female family and friends together to help us celebrate this amazing time in our lives. But, I will have to say that I missed Chris being there. So, when our GA friends offered to throw us a shower here in Cumming, we wanted to have a couples baby shower where Chris and I could celebrate together.
Our friends, Trish Hutcherson, Laurin Makohon and Lauren Bray hosted the shower at Brian and Trish's home. They decorated with pink and green (the color of our nursery), and made some delicious food!!

| I had fun holding baby Ella (Shannon and Holly Tweedy's 3 month old). She was so cute! |
The guys decided to head downstairs to play pool while the girls went into the den to open presents. I was overwhelmed with all the gifts. They were all so cute and will definitely be useful when our little girl arrives!

Thanks to Trish, Laurin and Lauren for helping to make this baby shower so amazing! And thank you to everyone who took the time to come! It meant a lot that all of you were there! We are so thankful that you want to share in this exciting time in our lives!
