After everyone filled their plates, it was time for games! The first game was to make baby boy names out of the letters of the soon to be baby’s parents names, Sarah Rose and Armand Barragan. With two minutes on the clock, attendees tried to make the longest list of baby names to win a prize. When the time was up, one of the guests won with 17 names created. The next game was a list of emojis and guests had to guess what children's book the emojis resembled, like Goodnight Moon and The Rainbow Fish. The most books guessed correctly was 14 books and the winner chose their prize. To end the night, a dessert station opened up with Lemon Bars, Mini Caramel Custard Flan, Fresh Fruit Tarts, and Strawberry Short Cakes and a delicious cake for everyone to enjoy.
