Anna's 1st Birthday

My brother and his family came down from New York last month and while they were visiting, we had a party for my niece who turned one today...Happy Birthday Anna!! The party was a cute little monkey theme. It was a fun day and a fun theme to plan with. I didn't get a ton of photos but here are a few.

Kailee's 8th Grade Promotion Party

Raina's sister-in-law, Yoli, asked us to decorate a dessert party for her daughter Kailee for her 8th grade promotion. We went to work on a grey and maroon themed party to go with her school colors and added some black for contrast and Matt and Yoli hung twinkle lights in the trees for some ambiance and voila... a nice little outdoor party to celebrate!  Here are some photos of the party and the ice cream sundae bar and other yummy desserts. Congratulations Kailee!!!

5th Grade Promotion

My Husband has managed to blog 201 straight days!!! I find that to be dedication.  We have a hard enough time posting pictures of our parties on our facebook page let alone writing a blog about it.  HA!! Oh well....

In June we were pretty busy with some parties, hopefully over the next few days/weeks we will get some new posts up for you. 

I have had the privilege of watching Amelia grow up.  She is now 11 and I have babysat her and her 5 year old sister since Amelia was 6 months old.  She is an amazing, talented, loving person.  She is on a swim team swimming against kids older then her.  I love her dearly and when her mom asked me to help her set up Amelia's schools 5th grade promotion ceremony...I jumped at the chance.  Sadly the promotion was on a Tuesday and my partner in crime Liz had to work. The theme was fun in the sun... Hope you enjoy the pictures
