I mentioned last week that my sweet friend Mylyn hosted a luau first birthday party, heavy on the endless summer vibe. The party decor was dotted with perfectly island-y- pineapples wearing sunglasses... ...the treat table was pineapple heavy (and also super simple).... ...and rows of …
kid's parties
party like a rock star
My niece Josie (aka- the cutest 2 year old EVER) loves music and is constantly singing. It is darling, and also just begs for a fabulously musical, disco ball studded rock star party, don’t you agree? Guess which aunt was home from Saipan for said birthday party? Yep, this lucky girl right …
mini birthday party kid’s table
As you probably know, I pretty much love pulling out all the stops for kid’s birthday parties. Give me a Donut Bar or sparkly treat table to put together and I’m a happy girl. And don’t get me started about my unquenchable love for favors (and the direct result of that love- overstuffed favor bags …
a season to sparkle party hop
I know that you’re well acquainted with the ever fabulous Party Hop by now (remember this Modern Fiesta? And this Christmas Fete? And this Star Gazing Soiree?). Well, this latest installment is my favorite yet. Perhaps because the theme is just so great- Season to Sparkle? Yes please. But …
a glitter party for our sparkle girl
My kids start planning their birthday parties months in advance (ok, a year in advance). Probably because their mom totally encourages this practice, just a theory. Anyhow, shortly after Piper’s Madeline birthday party, she declared ‘sprinkles’ to be her next theme and would not be dissuaded by my …
lego parties are awesome
We left Denver a mere two weeks after Burke's sixth birthday... which means, of course, that his birthday party was quite the affair (gotta go out with a bang, right?). That kid lo-oves Legos. Like, I am pretty sure this is not the last Lego birthday party I will plan for him, that's how much he …
a confetti fight (aka the most fun a kid can have)
The highlight of the confetti party was, for sure, the confetti fight at the end! Before everyone arrived, we filled boba straws and push pop containers with confetti. After filling little gable boxes with confetti shooters for each cousin (and a little confetti shooting practice), we gave …
confetti filled surprise birthday party
My sweet niece Keadryn is an event planner in the making- I love hearing her creative, detailed, oh-so-elaborate party ideas. My kids and Jord's kids all LOVE parties, but out of our combined broods, hands down, Keadryn loves them most. A couple months ago, Kead saw a show about a surprise party. …
the most thoughtful going away party
Our going away party was last weekend. Of course, I can't take credit for any of the fabulous ideas, but our friends put together such a gorgeous, thoughtful, party that I thought it'd be a waste not to share some pictures with y'all. There were globes everywhere- dotting the tables, next to the …
modern summer fiesta- more DIYs
Today brings two more fabulous DIYs for the modern summer fiesta party hop! These tissue paper flowers by Paisley Petal Events are the perfect festive touch for this fiesta (and could work for all sorts of other parties as well). And I love this hit-the-can party game by Paging Supermom- what …
