Sip ‘N’ See

IMG_2415

This weekend I hosted a Sip 'n' See for my friends Kelly, Matthew and Addison with the help Krista, and Kelly's mom Laurie. If you are not familiar with a Sip 'n' See let me explain: A Sip 'n' See is kind of a post-facto baby shower where folks come over to "sip" some punch and "see" the new baby.

A few months after Kelly found out she was pregnant she and Matthew moved to DC, so there was no time to throw Kelly a baby shower. When Krista (Kelly's best friend from high school) and I found out that we would not be able to give Kelly a shower we were both really sad, but leave it to Krista to save the day. Krista suggested that we have a Sip 'n' See. I was not familiar with this so I went to the internet a did some research and it was settled: Krista and Sally where planning another party.

With the help of Kelly's mom we put together a wonderful Sip 'n' See for sweet Addison. Let me rephrase that: BECAUSE of Kelly's mom we where able to put together a wonderful Sip 'n' See. Before I say anything else I have to give Kelly's mom Laurie all the credit. She cooked all the wonderful food and got everything we needed to make the Sip 'n' See wonderful. Thanks Laurie!!!! Trying to plan any party when the three hostesses are living in three different cities in two different states was not as hard that I thought. Krista and I are familiar with this kind of party planning. We all added our on special touches to the shower and it all turned out perfect. We are so glad that we got to send time with Kelly and Matthew and meet sweet Addison.
