Baby Gender Reveal Party

So we already knew that I was going to be an Aunt... but Friday night we had a party to find out if it was going to be a boy or a girl.

Here are some pictures from the event...

When you walked in the front door you had to pick if you were on Team Holden or Team Julianne (basically did you think it was going to be a boy or a girl).

Then you had to fill out the baby guess card I made and showed you last week.

When you looked up, you also saw these cute decorations.

Here is the lemonade.

There was other food, but nothing major to note... however incase you are wondering about the little food label holders... They are balls of white playdough with a paper clip stuck in them. Kind of cute and great for holding the label since I couldn't find my nice label holders.

Ok, so on to some fun pictures...

If you can't see the icing... IT'S A BOY!

So it was time for Jennifer and Tim to open the blue package... These are the shirts that I made for them. I made them using my cricut, freezer paper and some fabric paint. Pretty cute!

As you can tell most of the people were on the wrong team. Me included....

Here is the family after we found out... (ok so partially I was on team Julianne because the name was going to be after me and someone else and also so that I could hand down Laci's adorable clothes, oh, well.. I am seriously just as happy... never been around a boy baby)

Here is me and my sister. Isn't she a pretty pregnant lady? In 21 weeks I will be an Aunt to little Mr. Holden David Ring.
