Please join us in sending our warmest congratulations to our Volunteer Coordinator, Mallory, and her husband on the arrival of their beautiful baby girl, Eloise!

Both mom and baby are doing well, and dad is absolutely on cloud nine! We have yet to hear how best friend Ozzie (the family's adorable poodle) is taking the news that he's no longer the baby of the house.

Our hearts are overflowing with joy as we celebrate this special new chapter for Mallory and her growing family.

Welcome to the world, sweet Eloise! You are already so loved.

Joy Notes by Operation Shower invites you to relive the heartwarming magic of our Baby In Bloom group baby shower for military moms and moms-to-be! Take a moment to enjoy these treasured memories made with the incredible moms we celebrated that day. These moments are too beautiful to forget — we should celebrate them again and again because JOY MATTERS!

Did you know that nearly 90% of our income is given back to the military families we support? It’s TRUE! That is why we rely so heavily on donations from people like you! When you donate to Operation Shower, military moms and moms-to-be are filled with joy!

Learn more about Operation Shower at operationshower.org, including ways you can be part of joyful moments like these.

Thank you again to everyone who made this group baby shower so special for the families shown here.

It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to our dear friend, Aaron Richardson.

Aaron shared his talents generously, but it was his spirit, enthusiasm, and genuine love for what he did that made him so special. We are incredibly grateful for the happiness he brought to our baby showers and the memories we will carry with us.

Aaron, thank you for sharing your light. You touched so many hearts, and your presence will be deeply missed.

Our thoughts and love are with his family, friends, and the entire Arizona Music Force LLC family during this difficult time.

A big thank-you to Carter's for gifting with sweetest baby items for our Showers In A Box! These sometimes small but thoughtful and generous gifts are some of the things new moms need and want in order to feel ready for the arrival of their little one.

Behind every successful Operation Shower is an incredible team of volunteers who jump in, pitch in, and get the job done!

From setting up décor and organizing gifts to welcoming moms and helping throughout the shower, our volunteers make so much possible. We truly couldn’t do what we do without them!

Thank you for giving your time, energy, and hearts to our military families.

What’s a baby shower without something sweet? The one and only Inspired Sugar created the most beautiful and delicious confections for our Bear Hugs & Baby Wishes celebration! These sweet treats were almost too cute to eat, but thankfully, our guests were willing to give them a try!

Thank you, Inspired Sugar, for adding an extra sprinkle of sweetness to such a special day!

One of the sweetest parts of an Operation Shower is watching military moms connect with one another. Our Bear Hugs & Baby Wishes moms had the opportunity to share stories, laugh together, and build new friendships with others who understand the unique journey of military life. There’s something special about knowing you’re not alone—and we loved seeing these moms support and encourage one another!
