Gender Reveal Party

So the new fade on the internet is a gender reveal party. Basically you have all your friends and family come over and guess the sex of the baby and then find some clever way to reveal the sex of the baby. So we did a mini version of this. Because this would be my mother's first grandchild and Jake's mom's first grandson, we thought the party would be a fun idea. The theme of the party was "What's it going to Bee?". Everything was bee themed. Which was cute....except Publix didn't quite understand the concept. Because when I went to pick up the cake for the party the cake said "What's it going the Bee with a bee coming off". What the cake was suppose to say was "What's it going to Bee" and then there was suppose to be a bee flying off the word bee. Not sure what the cake decorator was thinking, but when I picked up the cake needless to say I was a little disappointed and had them fix it and they took money off the cake. After the cake problem, we set up the house for a nice cook out and had pink and blue balloons throughout. My sister-in-law, Chelsea made these cute little bees for people to wear the boy bees had a bow tie and the girl bees had hair ties, to show there guess. We had everyone pick a bee and then our mother's opened a "gift" which had a little onesie in it that said "It's a boy". Everyone was excited and we were happy to no longer have to keep the sex a secret. Because, Lord knows, they tried to figure it out beforehand. As a fun little gift, my family had gotten the little one a Matthew Stafford jersey so we know he will be a Detroit Lions fan and a Syracuse Orange hat. Football season he will be dressed in style. Here are some pictures from the event!
