Fun game prizes, a pumpkin pull apart cake and yes, folks, that is a diaper pumpkin.
The menu consisted of a yummy chicken pot pie in a biscuit 'cup', a pumpkin cheese ball that looked so professional the picture belonged in Better Homes and Gardens (hehe), veggies and dip, HOT APPLE CIDER and a few other delicious dishes.
A cute pumpkin centerpiece
We borrowed some corn stalks as well as some straw bales to spice things up a bit. Here's Jill with all of her lovely gifts.
Another angle...check out that adorable belly!!
These are some of the goodies I got for Jill. The embroidered burp cloths and blanket were a collaborative gift. My sister-in-law, Megan has an embroidery machine, so I asked her to personalize a few things for me. Thanks Megan, they were a hit - she LOVED them!! 
Some other fun gifts...
This was Mallory's first baby shower - she enjoyed all of the attention!

Kari...The Shower looks like it was a great time!! I can't believe that is your garage!! And of course Mallory is still a keeper...(so I dont have to comment on every post!!) Tell your husband he is never an "outsider" and I am sure he would love Starbucks......
Really cute! I love all the burp cloths and blanket. Mo is wicked talented! How much did all that embrodiery cost? We have a teacher who is having a baby in February and that looks adorable. IT would be a great gift and I would want to make sure Mo was getting a fair deal as well! You can email me at school tomorrow if you get a chance. BTW, that Mallory is gorgeous. I miss her to pieces!
Wow Kari, I am impressed! The shower looks like it was fantastic. The fall theme was a great idea. I love the burp cloths that Megan made. I was disappointed I didn't win the apron she made. :) I am glad to hear you guys are doing so well. Hopefully, I can actually meet you and Mallory one of these holidays. Mallory is a doll and I can't get over how much hair she has. We are headed to the U of I vs. OSU game this weekend. Our family will be split as I went to U of I and my grandpa actually played football for OSU. He will be glad to hear he has some support up in Wisconsin. Have a good rest of the week!
