Lets get this party started!!!!

Twas the 17th of July, getting close to the eve,
it was almost 7 o'clock and from work Andy was ready to leave.
At their house in the park, everyone was keeping busy,
cleaning, decorating, cooking, and running around in a tizzy.
We were preparing for a night of good clean fun,
when friends would show up to see Trish and her bun.
Getting ready for the party, some of the guys worked themselves to the bone,
they got so tired, their snoring filled the house with its drone.

Right after the nap Liz Carson showed up and whipped everyone into shape,
changing our home into a theme of a baby landscape.
It wasn't very long and people were pouring through the doors,
and the dogs in the basement could be heard barking through the floors.
The house was abuzz with friends from near and very far,
we couldn't believe our small driveway could fit everyones car!



There were sandwiches, bean bags, and bibs to decorate;
we laughed and played and of course, we all ate!


We are blessed to have such great friends that gave us such great gifts,
stuff to prepare us for baby, when our lives will definitely shift.








We thank everyone who attended and made it a special day,
we hope to repay your kindness in another special way.
To Liz we give an extraordinary THANK YOU,
she made it all happen and brought the pieces together like glue.
Here's her picture, she's available for hire,
but we will warn you, what she charges is enough to retire! :)
