It's a Girl!!! It's official...Jackie is having a little girl.
At the June meeting, we all agreed that we will give her a baby shower
on the regularly scheduled date of our August meeting...that's August 13th for the
calendarly challenged! This will be a baby book shower, to be precise.
We will be meeting/dining a little earlier than usual...here are the
details:
| WHAT: | Shower of Books for Baby Wachholz |
| WHERE: | Vita (used to be called Verde...next door to Parizade) |
| WHEN: | 6:00pm, Wednesday, August 13th |
| INFO: | - Registries at Target and Babies-R-Us
- If you remember, please include your snail mailing address with your gift
|
Please note: We will not be discussing a book at the August Baby Shower/Meeting.
We postponed our reading schedule by one month so discussion at the baby shower doesn't become too dark.
See the updated schedule below...
