A tribute to our Foley family - the work shower


David and I have both worked at the same firm, Foley & Lardner LLP for 10 years. As a result we have come to know a lot of very special people.
Our friends, Amy, Becky & Kim threw us the most incredible shower at work last Friday the 8th. We cannot aptly express our gratitude for the generosity of the people with whom we work. To say that we were "showered" with gifts would be a gross understatement. We had such a wonderful turnout of people at the shower, all enthused and happy for us about this precious most wanted girl. We have laughingly referred to her as Foley's baby because the excitement at work about her arrival has made us feel that she is already loved and wanted by so many people. So many people contributed towards several group gifts - unbelievable and incredible generosity. Multiple individual people gave us wonderful gifts of clothes, books, toys, bath items & an adorable fairy dress-up dress with wings, tiara and wand! Ever since the shower on Friday, people who were not able to be there keep stopping by either one of us with gifts - we and our daughter are so lucky. We are honored to work with such kind and generous people and we appreciate the support that a lot of these Foley folks have given us during some long hard years. We are thrilled to celebrate now with all of you in this joyous occasion. Thank you all and thanks to our girls for the party!
