what an amazing day!

we had our gender reveal party on sunday, and it was such a fun time!  behold, there will be a lot of pictures!  i had such fun concocting all the details {thanks kim for being our photographer for the day!}!  a huge thanks to my sister kim for diy-ing all the vases and arranging all the beautiful flowers!!!  a big thanks to my parents for letting me host it at their house!

the morning started out with a trip to corner bakery, we had the food catered by them, so we swung by to pick the goodies.  we arrived at my parent’s house and the decorating began!  grace was such great help {hc charming was a mission created by me and my p’s to get additional supplies}, she wiped down the chairs, helped me decorate, and set everything up with me!

at noon, the lovely guests started to arrive!  one by one, we greeted in glee and the party began!  we sipped our drinks and socialized for our start of the party.  we finally prepped the food, and enjoyed our meal outside.  thank goodness it wasn’t soooo hot.  it was hot but not as hot as it has been for the past few weeks.  i was so thankful for the temperature being at the tail end of the heat wave!

after the food, the kids got to hit a baby carriage piñata!  who doesn’t like a piñata at a party?!

after noshing on our meals, kim and i prepared the desserts.  it looked quite adorable!  after, we set up the table and i announced to everyone if they wanted to know the gender of the baby?!  of course they said yes!  i told them that they could find the answer in the cupcakes {from magnolia bakery}!  they were so excited!  everyone got up to grab their cupcakes!  once each person had their little treasure, everyone broke open their cupcakes at the same time!

there it was!  pink frosting signifying a baby girl!!!!!!  it was so much fun!
