Operation Shower ? Sarah Michelle Gellar Throws Baby Shower for ...

Missy Marie PhotographyWednesday, as the golf pros warmed up and tried to stay dry for the Northern Trust Open at Riviera Country Club, 40 Military Moms were given a dream baby shower, Hollywood-Style, by Operation Shower. ?Sarah Michelle Gellar, mom to 2-year-old Charlotte, was the hostess and could not have been sweeter or more honored to be able to shower these deserving moms with amazing gifts at the ?A Star Is Born? themed event. These expectant moms, who either serve in the military themselves or have spouses that are deployed (or soon to be deployed), all received Operation Shower?s huge signature ?Shower In a Box?- which was overflowing with the hottest products for babies and mommies. ?Gifts included a baby carrier, stuffed animals, baby shoes and a Petunia Pickle Bottom diaper bag.

After lunch and a stop at the dessert bar, Michelle Penn performed her song ?Welcome Me Home?, which honors military members and their families. ?Then it was back to the presents.

No shower is complete without playing a game or two, and staying true to the ?A Star is Born? theme, this game was a Hollywood Awards Show style raffle ? with categories like Best Set Design winning one of three bedding sets donated by Carousel Designs. The PGA Wives Association gave books and?Rory Sabbatini and his wife donated (2) round trip tickets and (5) days anywhere in the USA for one lucky lady and her husband for their baby-moon. Then, NBA Legend Jerry West came up and did the same thing (but with a heavy suggestion that they come visit him in his home state of West Virginia) .

Sarah Michelle Geller and Pottery Barn Kids ended the event by giving all the moms a Pottery Barn crib!
