We bought our home last July with the intention of hosting friends, family and parties here often. We had a smashing housewarming party in September and hosting the Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Group of Houston's holiday party in December. We were due for another party B.C. (before child). So we settled on Cinco de Mayo, since it would be right after my 2nd trimester began and hopefully I'd be feeling good and we can share the news with friends at the time. It was the right choice. It was the first week where I really began feeling well so I went into overdrive in terms of party planning. I rented a margarita machine, bought hundreds of decorations, designed and ordered custom beer koozies, and even creating a photobooth -- all of which helped pull off a successful fiesta. Our last guests left at 2:00am. We hope to host this again next year with Baby Mac in our lives. Those might be famous last words, but its our intention at this point. And next year, we'll hire a mariachi band too.
