Baseball Baby "Party" (Shower)

A friend and I hosted a baseball themed baby "party" which was for couples.  The decorations were actually her doing and the food mine so this is how it all came together.  We did have some outdoor games.  One was a baseball bag toss which did not seem to have as many fans as the lawn jenga.



This is the table centerpiece and the typical stringed goodies.  The centerpiece is made of washcloth flowers which actually don't look like flowers in this picture.  The two cups surrounding it had crackerjacks which were part of the favors for the party.  The baby will be a girl and the daddy is an Astros fan so there stringed goodies included a cute Astros' dress for her to grow into.

The welcome table included a softball for guests to sign, some diapers for doodling, and the take home favors.  It also included a cute Mr. Potato Head in Astros' gear.  We also put our favors in this table just layed out for folks to take anytime they might want them.  The favors included Big League Chew, Cracker Jacks, microwaveable popcorn, and some baseball suckers.






The food was some traditional ballpark food, or at least that was the intention.  We had hotdogs and nachos.


And then who can escape the ballpark without some sweets.  We served sundaes in miniture ballcaps of various teams to make the experience complete.
