Happy Tuesday, ladies! We are recovering from an absolutely wonderful long weekend. I'd share all about it but I sort of filled you in last Friday on our plans. So I'll just skip right to the good stuff this morning.... our gender reveal party! Yesterday we hosted a Labor Day cookout and followed it up with the much anticipated gender reveal! So let's get to the details shall we...
The Food
Our friend, Stacey, made this adorable baseball and bow cake to pull together our gender reveal party theme. I can't get over how amazing it turned out!
Guests grabbed koozies to represent which team they supported.
We served hot dogs with all the usual toppings; as well as chips and homemade ranch dip.
The Fun
While we got the party started, the kids had fun watching Paw Patrol and then headed out to the swing set.
The Friends & Family
The Teams
Team Girl: Bows
Team Boy: Baseballs
The Reveal
With Kevin being an avid baseball and softball player, there was no doubt that this time around we had to incorporate Kevin's passion into our gender reveal party. So for the big reveal, we filled a plastic baseball with colored chalk powder to reveal the gender.
Here's the video you probably already saw on instagram.
Seriously ya'll! I can't get over everyone's faces!
Just listen to everyone's cheers!
Boston Grey Holt... we can't wait to meet you!
Ah this looked like so much fun! So exciting that you're having a boy, congrats! I love the idea of filling a plastic baseball up with colored chalk powder. Super creative. Reminds me of the color runs that have been popping up everywhere!

ReplyDeleteBaseball is the basis of my relationship... We met because of baseball, spent most of college on a field watching him play, and still love going to games and all things baseball. This is such an awesome idea! Did you make the chalk filled baseball yourself? That is the most creative thing I have seen! Congrats on the new addition!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE his name!! And congrats to your family .. hope I get to meet the little guy (and Harper!)!!
