^^^ The other couples were so sneaky!^^^

They threw us a little baby shower/engagement party (for Evan & Carly)

 the first morning we were in Asheville.

It was so thoughtful and sweet and such a surprise.

The best part: the above (and below) card.

Pat created it in Microsoft Paint.

I mean seriously, look at his attention to detail here

(particularly with Alex's hair situation).

The whole thing was uber-sweet and much appreciated.

Evan and Carly received a similar card

but I totally forgot to snap a picture of it.

 

^^^ Ugh! I hate when blogger does this! ^^^
I have the photo saved just like the one above and for some unknown reason
when I uploaded it to the blog it rotated. GAH!
So sorry... please tilt your head to the right. :)
