This weekend was a fun weekend at my sister place for my niece's baby shower. I guess most of you know that I can not go anywhere without checking out the birds and wildlife. So my post is on my sister's backyard birds and critters and some shots from the baby shower.

My nephew's wife made this beautiful quilt as a shower gift for my niece, she also made yummy white chocolate pretzels and lollipops, brownies and oreo mini cheesecakes.. All the food at the shower was delicious. The cake was cute with the jungle animals and surrounded with iced cupcakes. It was a fun day, my sister will be a grandmother for the first time and I will be a great-aunt.
As always, I hope you enjoy my post and thanks for visiting my blog. I always appreciate your comments.

Looks like a fun time for all and a great shower for your niece! Wonderful captures, Eileen! Beautiful sunflowers and I love the deer! Lovely gifts for the new one to arrive! Thanks for sharing the fun!! Hope you have a great week!
What a fun yard your sister has. Love the baby quilt.
That IS Bambi! How cute!
What fun! And all the wildlife to boot! I too am a great aunt many times over but not yet a grandmother.
Looks like a great shower! And with Bambi in the yard, what else could you want!
Beautiful wildlife and flowers in your sis's yard.... you both have picked beautiful spots to live! The shower sounds like a lovely event. Congrats to all.(I used to think that Great-Aunt sounded so "ancient'...more so than Grandmother....now I am both many times over and I still don't feel ancient.)
What a joy it must have been to find so much of nature’s gifts at your sister’s doorstep. The first baby coming tops them all!
Looks like such a fun party, LOVE the fawn and the sunflowers are so beautiful!!
I don't think anything says sunshine like a field full of sunflowers. How beautiful!
And great shots of the fawn!

Sounds like the shower was great fun. I love the photo of Bambi and the sunflowers.
Congrats on being a great aunt! That's so exciting. It's always wonderful when a new member is introduced to the family. I love those sunflowers and the cute critters! And the food looks so yummy.
Your photos of Bambi are wonderful. I also like the sunflowers you saw on your way to the baby shower.
Your sister has a regular wildlife preserve going on there! How cool!
What a beautiful field of sunshine and that little Bambi is so adorable.
Congratulations on the impending new arrival in your family, it looks as though you had a wonderful party :)
Hi Eileen, I am back to thank you for all the great tips on seeing the black bears in Yellowstone, and info on the birds. We are having a great time, it's good to be back.
Dearest Eileen,
Wow, what a fun post, my friend♡♡♡
I enjoyed the whole pictures. Beautiful sun flowers, groundhog, lovely Bambi and Eastern Towhee♬♬♬
Congratulations on your sister becoming a grandmother♪♪♪ I enjoyed the pictures of baby shower as we don't have that custom in Japan.
PS>So sorry for my recent absence, my friend. I was a bit under the weather for the summer heat and busy days, not having had much strength to read and write in English(^^;)
Sending you lots of love and hugs to my dear Japanese friend in America, xoxo Miyako*
Amazing what you can find in a backyard
We haven't seen one fawn, which is a good sign. They have lots of food!
Bambi!!! Oh how cute! So so so adorable!!!
