"Cute as a Button" baby shower for Amanda

I know this not following in chroneological order, but I wanted to get this in.  Lindsay, Julianne, Karen and Megan hosted the cutest or "Cute as a Button" shower for Amanda immediately following our return from Africa.  There were all 4 grandmothers, both moms, her sister and all sister-in-laws, Aunts and cousins from everywhere.  It was a very special day.  

Lindsay made the invitations using a stamp for the design, printed them and then applied several different textured fabrics before applying the buttons.  We found several great ideas on other's blogs and even used some of the recipes available.  Megan had a gift that was opened throughout the time Amanda was opening her gifts.  She stacked several smaller boxes within each other and each time you opened a gift, there was a question.  Whoever answered it unwrapped the next box.  It was very cute and really helped Amanda feel more comfortable.
