Our friends Bri and Joel are expecting their first little one on March 27th. They chose not to find out what they are having but have called the baby Juan Pedro (not even sure why?!) during the pregnancy. We decided to run with it and had a quesadilla/margarita baby shower. 
It was a fun team effort (well from the girls at least) here is Megan, me, Helen and Catherine getting ready.

And the games began! Our first game was chugging beer from baby bottles. Luckily we had learned from Brittni's shower that we needed to make a few modifications to the bottle nipples so that the beer could actually come out of the bottles. My favorite pic of the whole game is the one above of Brittni chugging the beer while nursing Griffin! This picture is one to save for when he is a little older!
It came down to the final 3 of Sam, Dana, and Josh. When the music stopped they all had to grab their bottles and...
chug and...
chug!
Dana was the big winner!
Then outside we went for the pinata...we decided it would be best to let the mom to be go at it! You can see Joel laughing so hard in the far left as Bri swings away. 
She finally smacked it and it went everywhere.

In the pinata there were some bouncy balls...we lost the guys for the rest of the shower to this game they created to play in our front yard. As you can see from the photos they were VERY serious about it. The best part being that there was an open house going on in one of the other places in the courtyard area!
All they talk about now is when they'll get to play again.
Well at least as I write this blog a few months late baby Cornell isn't here yet (so I am not THAT far behind) but I will probably have an update very soon!
