On Aug 1 my mom and my sister Teresa hosted a baby shower for me. It was a baseball themed shower since my husband played baseball all through childhood and into college. They did such a great job, it was such a cute shower!
-
- “Concessions” table with cupcakes in the shape of a ball and mitt, cracker jacks and other candies and goodies.
-
- Little baseball bat engraved with the baby’s name greeted guests as they entered.
We played a couple of games that I hadn’t played at a baby shower before. In the first game, the guests were given a piece of bubble gum and they each sculpted it into a baby! Then I got to choose which baby I liked the best and that guest won a prize.

It was so wonderful seeing so many of my friends, especially since Mike’s health has prevented us from getting together as much as we would like. All of my friends and family were so generous and we had a really wonderful time.
