Since we are still partying around here, I thought I should share another party I was involved in recently. In the middle of the chaos that is December, my neighbor contacted me for help with her daughter’s 9th b-day party. She’s good at event planning, but wanted some insanity thrown into the mix.

Welcome to the Robot Design Academy and the birthday party of my six-year-old son! Here’s a question for you? Which takes longer, throwing the party or blogging about it? Ok throwing it does, but blogging about it is a close second. To keep this post from being any longer than it is already going to…

I was recently asked by a reader to re-create this Nancy Drew invitation for her daughter’s birthday. I originally designed this invitation for my daughter’s 7th birthday and posted about it here. This isn’t the first time I’ve had this request from a reader. I’ve done 4 or 5 of these invitations for little aspiring sleuths and…
I thought I would give you a peek at a few things that have shown up in my mailbox lately to aid in my party planning endeavors. I’m actually thinking I will hold on the the ABC cups for a little while. I’m thinking “A is for Alec” could make a very cute first birthday…
Many of you were excited about doing some thing like the “30 sucks” gift I sent to my sister and posted about last week. Blogging friend, Susan from Poca Cosas, left me a comment and it reminded me that I had seen lots of growing old gifts on her blog. I guess she and most…
