A huge shout-out and a sneak peak!

January 24, 2013

Back in October, I offered to host a baby shower for my dear friend Jordan. The shower is taking place this Saturday, and I am so excited about how it’s turning out.

However, you might remember that back in December I finished up a semester of grad school, traveled abroad for two weeks, celebrated Christmas and traveled out of state for a family wedding before hosting visitors for a week. During this crazy and fun time, a thought kept popping into the back of my head… Jordan’s shower… pick invites… order invites… mail invites. I was so busy that it was hard to make this happen. I would jump onto Etsy for a couple of minutes late at night to narrow down my selection of possible invitations and would then completely forget about them until someone said the word ‘baby’ and I would frantically remember that I still hadn’t actually ordered invitations.
Enter Robin over at Paper Clever. This lady saved my life, y’all. Not only does she have the cutest invitations in the world, but she was the first person to get back to me when I started my search for the perfect paper for this shower. She even added a new design to her shop just for me. She also was incredibly gracious when I had to change my order at the last minute. She doesn’t even know I’m writing this post about her. I just want to say that Robin is great, and the inventory in her shop is beyond cute. I highly suggest you check out her selection the next time you are throwing any type of party!

This is just  a little sneak peak of what’s to come this weekend. I’ll be back with more details on the shower in the next few weeks!

Hi. I’m Jen Russum and this blog is where I’ve been sharing narratives of God’s grace for more than a decade now. Some might say “blogs are dead” but I’m waiting for them to come back around like mom jeans and 90s flannel. I enjoy my coffee iced, my summers hot, and my dinner parties long with lots of laughter. I process all of life’s deepest, darkest, and happiest moments by writing essays in my head. When I have the time, some of these essays get typed up and shared here. I’ve always loved to write, and I hope my words bring you joy and encouragement.
