Need wording for long distance invitation

Need Ideas for wording for long distance invitation...

My sister's husband is in the Marines and they live in CA, we live in PA. They were only planning to have 2 kids and then gave all of their baby stuff away. Now my sister is pregnant with her 3rd baby (surprise!!) and no money to by baby items. How do I write an invitation asking people to send her stuff without having a baby shower.

If most of the invitees live close to you, consider having the shower at your home (or at the home of a friend) and video taping it for your sister. During the shower, call your sister and have each guest talk to her. You can either collect the gifts and mail them to your sister or all the guests can contribute money to purchase a gift certificate. (When I did this, I asked each guest to just put money in jar so that no one knew who was contributing what amount). You could also make a "baby time capsule" and have each guest jot down a message to the baby.

WE ARE PLEASE TO ANNOUCE THAT (SISTER NAME AND BROTHER IN LAW NAME) are expecting their 3rd little blessing! we are having a long distance baby shower for them so please send gift cards to (their address or your address and send it to them in 1 bulk package)

put a date on when to have it to you if you are going to mail them yourself! and to make it easier for the parents to shop have people all go to maybe target or walmart! but if they wish to send them something like an item tell them they can order items online or ship them to the expecting parents!

good luck
