qteapie210 asked:
Here is my situation: I am 25 weeks pregnant and live aprox 4 hours away from my immediate family (parents, aunts/uncles, ect…) and aprox 3 and 1/2 hours from my husbands family. My sister in law and brother live 15 minutes away and around x-mas time she aked if she could throw me a baby shower. What made her offer ohhh so appealing is that we wouldn’t have to travel a long distance to have a shower AND wouldn’t have to worry about how to get our new baby gifts back home (4 hours away).
So my question is: Not many relatives from either side of the families are willing to travel in March to my shower and that is fine, but I have about 25 work friends that I want @ the shower. How many is too many work friends becasue I don’t want it to seem we’re being greedy by inviting more people for more gifts when that isn’t the truth at all. I just know when we got married we had 3 bridal showers and we had to travel all over the state to attend them. I just didn’t want to do that again.
Ohh yeah, one point I left out: The shower is being held @ a resturant. There was no room rental fee involved and we’re having a light tea fare. My sister in law’s apartment is WAY small and it was HER idea to “rent” a place.
