At the count of three, the expectant couple shot the cannons and guess what? PINK! I'm expecting another granddaughter! And I couldn't be more thrilled because I absolutely adore the granddaughter I already have, and I think it's pretty awesome that she is getting a sister.
The theme of the party was "Staches and Lashes," and everything was decorated in pink and blue. People who thought the reveal would prove that my daughter was carrying a boy wore fuzzy mustaches. Those who thought it was a girl, wore fake eyelashes.

Congratulations! I love the idea of friends and family expressing their guesses through "stashes and lashes", how fun and interactive.
ReplyDeleteIt was a LOT of work to organize, but SOOOO much fun!!
DeleteOh, my word! What a lot of fun! Another granddaughter! I'm so excited for you! Granddaughters rule! (I can say that because none of my grandsons are here right now!) :)
ReplyDeleteWe are very excited! Baby will come around mid October, just in time for my birthday!
DeleteSo, two stories- same child. My ex- and I argued for months about potential names for the child. Even for the possibility of a daughter- which she knew was not to be.
ReplyDeleteAnd, our previous youngest (replaced by this new child) came into the hospital room and told mom- I want a girl. Put him back and get another!
Too funny!
DeleteCongrats!!!! Now that I'm in Florida, we need to get together soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks and YES, we should!
DeleteYAY another girl, how exciting, and the party...what a blast. LOL get it
ReplyDeleteAnother beauty to add to the family photos.
I'm so excited!!
DeleteThat sounds so fun! We never did a gender reveal party, but we did do gender reveal photo shoots,
ReplyDeleteIt really was a fun party and a great way to do the reveal!
DeleteCongratulations, Marcia! What a fun party, too. I've seen that on TLC's The Roloffs. Does the gender reveal replace the traditional baby shower? Or do they still have those? Nice family pics!!
ReplyDeleteThey strip have baby showers, too. That will be the next party we plan!
DeleteI've only been to one gender reveal party -- but what fun. How difficult it must have been for you to keep that secret!
ReplyDeleteVERY difficult!
DeleteLooks like a great time! I think big sister-to-be is going to be an actress. She's so cute. Congrats, grandma!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Denise!
