A week ago, on November 8th, my sister Kathy and I hosted a baby shower to welcome our new nephew Brody to the family. We had a lot of fun. Held it at the Royal Center in Hudsonville since the club house at Presidential Estates was booked for that date. Found out the Royal Center is a super-nice place to hold a function like this. Very nice facility. We were happy with how many women attended and I think we all had fun. Only regret we had was that none of us had our cameras ready to snap a picture of the looks on everyone's faces during one of the games. They all thought we were doing the classic memory game in which a tray of baby items is shown to everyone and then they all had to write down as many items as they could remember being on the tray. Instead, we had Heather walk around showing everyone the tray and then she left the room. At that point we told everyone they needed to write down what Heather was wearing. Mouths dropped open and we heard several "are you kidding"s and "are you serious"? Suddenly the game was not so simple cause nobody had been looking at Heather while trying to memorize what was on the tray! Oh, it was hilarious! Every now and then you need to do something to shake up the "same old, same old" showers. (Maybe the next one we'll get a stripper, hmm)
If you want to see more pictures from the baby shower, there's an album of them in my PicasaWeb albums. (Link is over along the rightside of this blog)
