Beau or Bow - Gender Reveal Party

Not OUR gender reveal party. Calm down. : )

My friend Kay had her gender reveal party this past weekend and it was so much fun.


Looks like a balloon release...right? Wrong.


They tricked everyone and dumped out a bunch of colorful balloons for us to pop. There were pieces of paper inside the balloons and one said the gender!


And...it's a BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to meet that sweet little man...and find out whether our babies will be best friends or a couple. Arranged marriage, maybe? ; ) 

I added a poll on my sidebar under my picture...tell us whether you think sweet baby bunny is a boy or a girl. We find out in 3 days and our party is in 4 days. Woohoo!

PS: I'm sharing five of my favorite things about marriage over here at Pinky's!

When I have a baby I want to keep it a surprise, but these parties look like so much fun that it kind of makes me change my mind a little bit!

I saw a blog of one gender reveal where even the parents didn't know what it was. They had some other person find out and they had a blue and a pink cake and took the wrong one away. So everyone found out when they cut the cake. Very exciting! (Except they were finding out they were having boy #4...)

I love the idea of a gender reveal party!!! I cannot wait to read about yours. I am new to your blog and already hooked :)

Kari said...

What an awesome idea!!! I love it!! :) I saw one online where the couple had their appointment on Friday then went away for the weekend and had their parents paint the room pink or blue. When they came home on Sunday they opened it to see what the color was. I'm wayyyy too impatient to wait that long! And my mom could never keep the secret for 2 days! ;)

Such a fun party! All these baby-bumps are just too cute. Can't wait for your news and party. :-D When the time comes for my hubby and me to guess the sex of our (not yet conceived) unborn child, I'm going to be asking you how to create a side-bar poll. :-D

this is a fun different way to do it. I like that they went beyond the floating balloons idea.

That baby of yours better be spread eagle in 3 days. ;)
