I have a daughter whose birthday happens to be the same day as Earth Day! That hasn’t stopped us from throwing all kinds of different themed birthday parties in the past. But last year we decided to embrace the holiday and make it an Earth Day Birthday Bash! Even if you don’t have an Earth […]

Since I posted my Disney’s FROZEN-themed winter party on the blog in December, it has quickly become one of my most pinned posts on Pinterest! I predicted that it would be the hot–or should I say “cool”–choice of birthday party themes for all of the little princesses out there and I was right! Last weekend […]

Last year around this time I was part of a pre-school co-op. We traded having school at each house, and somehow I ended up with the honor of hosting many of our pre-school parties (and yes I love it. I’m not complaining). We had a Halloweeen, Thanksgiving, and Christmas party at our house and also […]

I was really pleased with how our Thanksgiving table came together last year! It was an elegant out-door gathering featuring gold and cornhusks. You can read all about it here.

I’ve shown you the comic book style invitations and save the dates I made for my brother-in-law’s surprise 30th Superhero birthday party. It’s about time I show you the rest of the party!
