Center Court: A baby shower for Kayla Grace :)

When we moved to Greenville we met a family who moved the same week as us from Charlotte...they're The Oddo's. Jimmy and Emily (the parents) have 3 kids, Heather, Melissa, and JC. Heather and I are the same age and immediately were connected at the hip and you couldn't find one of us without the other! We went to different colleges, but have always kept in touch and gotten together at least once a year. They all moved to Charleston several years back and Heather went to CofC and JC is in his last year at The Citadel. My mom and Emily were very close friends as well, and have also kept in touch. Melissa got married 5yrs ago and her husband Jonathan was stationed in Germany, so they were there for a few years. They moved back and are in Sumter. She is having a baby girl in April (3 weeks away) and they're naming her Kayla Grace! Heather and Emily hosted a baby shower this weekend and it was a blast. I took the kids with me b/c the girls were dying to see them! Brooks immediately got in with the group of girls (he thought about playing with the boys, but his cuteness attracted the girls attention, so he stuck with them...such a ladies man!) and C was passed around 10 times over! Brooks became extra excited when he saw there were presents to open, so Melissa let him open them for her (she's going to be an awesome mom!). He was surprisingly ok that he didn't get to have any of the gifts, he was just happy to rip the paper off...I will have to remember this ha! She racked up and will definitely be ready when the baby comes.
It was nice to spend some time with the Oddo girls...although in October Heather's last name will be changing!!! She got engaged on NYE, so exciting! We got to go out on Saturday night to dinner and chatted it up till midnight! I hadn't been out that late in years...thats kinda sad considering I'm only 26, but hey, thats what kids will do to ya!
