Princess Party

The party was fun and Kendall's all ready to plan next year's big event. Daddy took her to the salon this morning for an official princess updo and then I did her makeup when she got home. When each girl arrived I did their makeup too. For games we played Kiss the Frog Prince (like pin the tail on the donkey but with lips and a big picture of a frog with a crown), pass the parcel, and we slayed a dragon pinata. Actually Dave slayed it and about slayed the kitchen in the process.




The kids were all really cute and I think they had fun.

March of the Penguin Cupcakes

OK, I know . . . but they are just so cute! Penguin cupcakes.

New craft and Party Blog

Katy and Kirsten suggested that I start a blog devoted solely to craft and party ideas. Here it is in all its crafty glory. I have only posted about Emma's 7th birthday party. Enjoy if you wish!

Magical Music

Emma is having a magic theme party. I am pretty much set, but need some suggestions for music that is about magic or magical beings like fairies, magicians, trolls, elves, witches, genies or wizards. I ruled out witchy woman and magic man because I thought they were too adult and not that dancy anyway. Thanks.

Baby Shower Ideas

I'm throwing my really good friend a baby shower and my colors are blue and brown.  Other then the obvious balloons and utensils, how can I make it more baby appropriate, yet chic.  I probably won't do balloons though, I just don't think there're that nice.  With the help of her sisters, we already have food and games planned.  I just need some decorating ideas since it IS at my house. I have a couple things already planned but I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask you all for some more ideas and advice.  I'm sure you all have been to your fair share of baby showers:-)

Birthday Invitations

My daughter Madison will be turning 7 the end of March, so I have decided to get started on the party planning. She wants an ALL PINK theme. I saw this cute paperdoll invitation idea on marthastewart.com and thought it was so adorable. I saw in a previous post you guys gave some ideas on a green themed party...you got any ideas for an all pink party? Goodie bag ideas? Food? I am really excited about this. I think it will be fun.

St. Patricks Day Themed Birthday

I'm having a little birthday party for my to-be 4 yr old and the theme is St. Patricks Day, hence her Birthday IS on St. Patricks Day.  Do any of you have some fun and interesting ideas for food and decorations?
