Pt. II I love all of you, who like me, go a little crazy about a family costume theme. It is hard to orchestrate, but very impactful when you walk in to the party as a group! If you are still working on coming up with a family theme for this year, maybe one of…
It’s time to Parade some of my favorite costumes from the Costume Parade Party! They were really all fantastic, so you should go back there and visit them all, but in the meantime, I wanted to show you some of the ideas that caught my eye. Since there were so many great ideas, I’m breaking…
Hey, Arizona peeps! Blogger and local party planner Michelle, has just opened her own party boutique in Glendale. She is having a big Grand Opening party tomorrow (probably today by the time you read this) and asked me to help spread the word. I’m hoping to drop by with my crew to check out what…
My Halloween mantle this year is brought to you courtesy of the creative people in blogland (and some Hobby Lobby and Target Clearance items). The “Eat Drink and Be Scary” download is from Craftily Ever After who also has some other fun download options. It adds a fun punch of orange to my mostly black…

I had planned to blog much more this past week. I still have a lot of details to share about the robot party. Some of you know that last week I got a nasty case of mastitis that forced me to bed for a few days. I was just recovering from that on Tuesday…
We interrupt this non-stop robot party coverage to bring you a word from our sponsors… Actually, CSN is not a sponsor of this blog, but I am one of their “preferred bloggers” which means that periodically they are willing to send me FREE stuff that I can tell you about. Unless you have just discovered…
