Have you missed me? Probably not with Trina’s awesome posts (scroll down). I’ve been just a little bit busy… …with this… …and this… …and this… …and this… …and this… …and this… (O.K. so this one was really all my mom, and she helped with lots of the other projects, too.) …and a bunch more stuff…
Guest post by Kendra’s sister, Trina. This is a fantastic idea that can be adapted for so many events/parties. Read on… Here are my boys filling out their menus. A Bit Late for April Fool’s, But Fun Nonetheless (Surprise Dinner) I love this idea because it’s a way to make an occasion special and fun…
Guest post by Kendra’s sister, Trina, who isn’t only insanely creative, but also extremely cheap–that runs in our family, too! 🙂 I feel unqualified to talk about home décor because I don’t do too much of it, and what I do do is more often dictated most by how inexpensively it can be done. So,…
(Yes the pun in the title is totally intended. This is another guest post by Kendra’s certifiably insane sister, Trina. If you don’t believe she’s all that crazy, read on…) In recent years, our two older boys have often opted to forgo a big friend party in favor of a bigger outing with only…

By popular demand, here are some templates for you to throw your own “She’s about to pop” baby shower. They are designed to be able to be printed in black ink on colorful paper. Don’t forget to add the lollipop in the middle. The first one is good if you have a program like Photoshop…
When I first posted the invitation I made for my husband’s graduation (go here to download the template). I received a few requests for some more graduation party ideas. I really think a graduation party can be anything from formal and fancy to totally casual and fun, like a luau or fiesta. The idea that…
My Easter post will be coming soon, but I’d love some input from all of you brilliant bloggers and readers about this lovely (read sarcasm) piece of furniture. We inherited a decent table and four of these chairs a few months ago (Don’t you love how I never pay for things?). The table is oak,…
We’re in the middle of full scale Easter preparations around here (report to come next week). But my sister finally sent me pictures of what the mom-to-be called the “coolest baby shower ever!” This is not a party I hosted. I didn’t have to make the cake pops, or mail the invitations. I didn’t even…
