Laurin's Baby Shower for Little Miss Riley!

This baby shower was very special. The mom to be lives in Houston, TX but came back home to Indianapolis, IN so that her family can celebrate the upcoming birth of Baby Girl "Riley." The family hasn't had a baby girl since the mom to be was born over 20 years ago! So needless to say this was truly a shower of love, hence the theme "Your are my Sunshine."
