What is a Virtual Baby Shower?

Welcome to Lauren Hunt Woolley's virtual baby shower.

Since Lauren is in Idaho and far away from most of her friends and family we wanted to give people a different option to help celebrate her new baby coming in December.  Thus, a virtual shower.  That means that all of the usual in-person party activities will take place online, through the blog and online registries.

I know this process is new to most of us, so if you have any questions please let us know!

This site will be your link to all the fun.  Her virtual shower will start tomorrow and go through December 4th (Michael's birthday!).  We will have virtual games, cake and even prizes.  Every day of the shower we will post fun trivia about Lauren!

Please leave comments wishing Lauren well and sharing any baby advice, or life-with-two words or wisdom.

Hope you enjoy the fun! Thanks for helping us celebrate!

Olivia (R) and Baby Boy (L)
