The week of parties...


Saturday AM-Attended a beautiful bridal shower at a cute country restaurant.

Saturday PM - My best friend planned a Cuban themed birthday for her husband. Cuban quartet, mojitos, empanadas, chocolate cigars. Fantastic.

Sunday- A super fun birthday party for my Little One. We celebrated at a local apple orchard with 5 of her friends. Hay rides, apple picking, pumpkin decorating, fun presents, running in the field, yummy cupcakes.

Monday - Sick day. Too many cupcakes.

Wednesday - My husband's birthday. Steaks on the grill with the neighbors. Trying to keep the big surprise party that is in a few weeks a secret.


Thursday - Dinner with friends. Still trying to keep the surprise party a secret.

Saturday - Finish preparations for the Little One's party on Sunday.

Sunday - My Little One's big birthday party with our families. The theme is (in her own words) "Fairies & Pirates, but not Peter Pan".

Monday - Her actual birthday. She wants to go here for lunch.

Tuesday - Breathe.


Photos: The "birthday girl" clipboard was made by my sweet friend Melissa!!! I adore this!!! She made a bunch of vintage inspired word cards to go with it, so I can swap them around. Sooo cute!!! She is selling a few in her etsy shop!

The other two photos show the completed project from the Birthday Tag Book Swap that I hosted. This swap was a so much fun. Everyone did such beautiful work!
