SHOWER FOR AVA AND I FROM MY FRIENDS IN ICU!

Last night Sherri, my very good friend and China travel partner hosted a shower for Ava and I by the ICU Staff I used to work with. I spent most of my nursing career working in ICU, but have been in PACU for three years now...I was honoured that they all still wanted to have a shower for us. It was great to see everyone...some who I haven't seen for almost 5 years!



Everyone enjoying dinner...and of course catching up on gossip!



Ava having dinner with her new friend Isabel!




Sherri(our hostess), her son Cory and Linda

Opening the many beautiful gifts


Getting lots of help with the gift opening!







Some of the beautiful gifts Ava received in addition to many generous monetary gifts which I deposited directly into her education fund.
Thank you all so much for the wonderful shower and your generosity. We had a great time.
Thank you Sherri for organizing everything, as always you were a great hostess and a wonderful friend!
