Nothing like a Redneck baby shower for a Hoodie!

Some of our dearest best friends-Hoodies-neighbors are expecting a baby boy in March. This will be #3 for them. They are catching up to the Reeds! woo-hoo. We came up with a plan on how to celebrate this exciting time for them.....a Redneck baby shower! Now let me just say, you can't just throw anyone a Redneck shower and they love it. ha! David and Elizabeth have kept us all rolling over the years with their Earl and Earleen impressions. They even came dressed up to a Halloween party one year as our favorite backwoods Redknecks. Having a picture of this gave us the perfect idea on what to do for their cake. (oh how the bakers at HEB laughed!) La Fiesta made the prefect place to have our couples shower. We decorated with only the finest decor you can buy....well, maybe not! Feed sacks for the guest of honor chair, cut outs of Earleen blown up with an arrow pointing to baby, Boones bottles with flowers, all the present wrapped in Walmart sacks and laundry baskets....this was probably one of the easiest baby showers ever planned. ha!



The budlight box was really a gift inside....a little onesie that said "New kid in da'Hood"


Of course some of the guest wore their best outfits.

David and Elizabeth were the BEST sports on letting us throw them a surprise redneck shower! This little boy is going to be blessed with two wonderful parents. I know how much they are a blessing to my family. We love everything about them and will love this little Earl too when he gets here!!! (by the way the bottles are more decor)
David you "Got Er Done"


Liz, if you are reading this I want you to know how much I love you dearly friend. You are beautiful in every way! My prayers are with you during this exciting time. Praying for a healthy baby boy and a smooth delivery. I am oncall for you! If you need a Hoodie...even in the middle of the night...I will send Casey. ha! You know I am kidding...I am there!!! Hoodie Hugs~TR

OK, so I just got through reading up on Mindy's blog, and thought now that I have a minute to myself, I'd put down an official comment for you, same as hers. I jus' want you to know thet Earl and Earlene will never ever forgit whut you done fur us. Brangs tears to mah eyes jus' readin' about it. Cain't believe Earl and me made it big time and are on the internet now! I just know we'll be famous after this!

We love our hoodies and had the best time ever. No one had to tell me where most of these crazy ideas came from. I know ALL about YOU, girl! Can anyone say, takes one to know one?? Thank you for everything!

love
the one and only (we hope) Earlene aka Elizabeth
