ok, so it's not necessarily a holiday.. but it is a special occasion...

i've been picked to host a baby shower for a girlfriend that lives over in ATL. granted, i dont know the layout of ATL or where anything is since I live in SDL - she may be moving, so we only have one other friend of hers that's offered to host the party at her house...the shower is going to be probalby in mid october and she's having a boy...

so i'm thinking football theme...she's not the traditiional type of girl that likes the cutesy type shower things (wouldn't know what to do with "girlie" stuff, more of a tomboy)... so i'm thinking of doing something that would include the men (since the daddy might like to be apart of the fun as well)...

I don't have kids, have only been to 2 baby showers.. am going to/helping out with 2 others by November that will probably be more traditional...

does anyone have any suggestions? do i host just a get together type party with everyone included or do i make a big deal out of it and have games and all that??

Unfortunately, I have to watch my costs because of the other 2 baby showers i'm helping with (one being my sisters in TPA and another here in PHX)...so many baby showers at once, it's only me and one other friend that don't have kids yet!! should be fun though!! it's almost like being the bridesmaid but never the bride (even tho i'm married)! hahaha
