I fail to comprehend even the idea of a gender reveal party.
Forget that today parents can't say what gender a child is until the child decides for themselves. Ha!
Maybe another excuse to have friends over being drunk while the mom to be had to stay sober. [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]

My son’s wife wanted one here at the house. He shot a bow at balloons (which is illegal in town) filled with powder. Dang that boy sucked with a bow. Had a bunch of friends from all over the state.
To each his own. Just a bunch of people with another excuse to get together for the wife’s attention seeking in my opinion. I feel the same about weddings. Nobody gets married at churches but spend $20,000 on a winery venue with dancing and booze. A whole day of celebrating and a crap load of work. All my kids had venues. My wallet exploded and has been paper thin ever since. I wrote each one a check. I said do the church, money left over for a house. Do the venue this is all you get and the rest is on you. Of course they went to the winery with grape fields, a DJ, guest they haven’t seen in a year, and it lasted to midnight. NOTHINGS TOO GOOD FOR OUR BABY GIRLS. JEEZ.

I personally wouldn’t go...they’re stupid. Let’s create one more BS reason for people to spend money on another group of people so that one of the groups can jump up and down screaming look at me.
No thanks, I’ll pass.

I think a post on Facebook of "It's a boy" or "It's a girl" will tell everyone who matters what sex it will be born with.
The party is overkill and, as mentioned, a reason for someone to say "look at me, I'm special".
Pass.

On the way home, did y’all manage to figure out a way to incorporate the Wizard into the next one?

I got hoodooed into going to one; once.
Was talking to the dad. They already had a little girl and I asked him if he was hoping for a boy....said he was.
Well, being my normal non-filtered smart-assed self, I told him on the day of the birth, if it’s another girl, pick her up, blow on her bellybutton and “it” will pop out...voila! instant boy.
That little comment made me as popular as ants at a picnic.
