The babies though? They'll be two little stinkers no matter what =)
Speaking of those stinkers... they did NOT cooperate at the 4D ultrasound so we'll try it again next weekend. Now, back to the details of the shower.
My parents hosted it at their house. They did some renovation on their garage which took a lot of time and work and it turned out wonderful. Their very spacious garage, driveway and neighbors section was packed with people, I just couldn't believe it. I know my mom, brother, sister and sister-in-law worked their butts off for weeks trying to get this shower going. I still don't know how they pulled it off but kudos to them.
How did they surprise me? Well, I was supposedly picking my mom up to go over to my brother's BBQ. Of course when we got there and saw all the balloons we immediately started smiling. I had a dress with me *just in case* so that I can change into. And to clarify things, no I didn't know about the shower but that dress was going with me wherever I went so I can be prepared. Jeff thought I was silly but he is a guy, he doesn't understand. Now, finally here are some pics:
Mommy made this
My tiara says: Mom to be.
Jeff's corsage have two cute babies on it.
The cake
My sister-in-law Zaira made it. TWICE.
It got completely messed up in the car and with lots of creativity,
Nick knocks & ribbons you could never tell!
Mom made the sign in board with an enlarged copy of
the invitation in the middle, you can see my flowers, a diaper cake, favors,
and the pink and blue napkins....awwww!
This is the actual favor
Two Peas in a Pod Salt and Pepper shakers
My mom hosting and getting the games going
One of the games had the guys blindfolded and pinning
diapers on balloons. Jeff managed to do it without popping the balloon!
Go Jeff! and get ready there is more of this in your near future!

His goggles are on and he is ready to go!
It contains lots of things: wipes, diapers, gloves, a mask
so he can breathe freely and even a tong to avoid touching with hands!
My hat with all the ribbons from the presents...
and I um forced Jeff to wear my Mom to be tiara =)
Ahhhhh I LOVE the pictures, and Miss Shanny you look gorgeous. Although I do have to say that I think Jeff is trying to give you a run for your money especially in that picture with him and the tiara. Oh Jeff, you TOO look beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteGlad that you guys had a great time, and that cake is amazing! You're right, you would never be able to tell that anything happened to it!!!
Looks like it was a fun shower! Loved seeing the pictures. I can't believe the babies didn't cooperate for you. :( Come on, Little Shanny and Little Jeff, we wanna see your pretty little faces! :)

ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a blast! Your fam really knows how to throw a party!!
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome shower! glad the guys could join in :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you guys had a blast! I'm so happy your shower went well...you are such a good sport, I hate surprises for stuff like that, hahaha. But I NEVER wear makeup unless there's a special occasion, so I'd probably cry if I looked crazy for my shower! So glad you guys had fun & got lots of baby goodness. :)
