This
post is about Zach and Jacquie's new baby's gender reveal party, but
first I have to write about how amazing and wonderful my mom is. I love
looking back and thinking about all the times my friends have come over
to my parent's house, during high school and also the past 7 years, each
time I came to visit during Full Sail and on my 3-day weekends. She is
such a friendly host who makes everyone feel right at home. Prime
example >> after Sharanya and I got back to my parents house from
Payne's Prairie, she was saying how she didn't have any clothes to wear
to the party. My mom insisted on letting her borrow a robe and put our
clothes in the dryer for 30 minutes. What a sweetie!!
Zach
and Jacquie made tacos for the party while her sister, Nikki, decorated
their house with balloons and streamers. Peyton LOVES Mommy, the best
grandma in the world. She would cry if Mommy tried to put her down and
wouldn't let anyone else hold her. For games, Jacquie had us write down
boy and girl names with the letters H and R.
Then we went outside and
sprayed them with silly string. She took the caps off so we wouldn't
know what color it was until we sprayed it. It's a girl!! Nikki recorded
a video of it. I tried to get a picture of Peyton in her "big sister"
shirt, but she's fast at running around now. On her tippie toes, just
like I did at that age. (She's almost a year and 8 months.) Back inside,
we played Hangman to guess the name they picked: Helena Rey. They
passed out cupcakes and we watched the ultrasound video. Overall it was a
really nice, festive day!!
