Baby Shower

My awesome friends, Amanda and Jen, threw me a baby shower last weekend. Here we are looking blurry in front of all the wonderful food.

One of the reasons my baby shower was so much fun for me was because I had so many family members who were able to come. Nate's mom, Dorothy, had been planning to come out for a while. She's sitting on my right. My mom, seated on my left, decided to drive out from Colorado the Monday before the shower. And my grandmother, seated next to my mother, just happened to be in town visiting my aunt.

Below: My aunt Christine, my grandmother, and my mother.

I also had lots of great friends from my ward who were able to attend. I think I have a picture of almost everyone.

My friends know me well. Jen planned this great art history baby shower game. She printed paintings with babies in them from the internet and asked questions about them. I absolutely loved the game! Here's a small sample from the game so you test your own art historical baby knowledge.

1. Who are the babies?

2. Who is the artist?
And, in what country was this painted?

3. Who is the artist?
And, what is the style?

4. Who is the artist?
5. Who is the artist?
6. Who is the baby and what is he doing?

7. Who is the artist?
And, in what decade was this painted?

As you can see, just because this was a baby shower game it was not a very easy quiz. #5 and #6 are particularly difficult. How did you do?
