This past Saturday I hosted a baby shower for one of my best friends Carissa. Her sister and I had a great time planning this event and couldn't think of a better theme than an Iowa Hawkeye tailgating theme for the parents that are die hard Hawkeye fans. The mommy-to-be had a wonderful time and got lots of great gifts and is now just awaiting the arrival of her son Henry David.
The adorable mommy-to-be...
These letters wouldn't stay up so we used baby socks to hold them in place!

What type of invites did you use?
Did you make your own invites or were you able to buy some. I'm trying to find Hawkeye invites for a baby shower.

Hi Lindsay,
I wasn't able to find Hawkeye baby shower invites, but this shower was held back in 2008. At the time is used a template from Vista print and just changed all the colors to black and gold. I would check on Etsy to see if anyone makes customized invites now.
