Trash to Treasure
I recycled these Pringles cans into fun Easter gifts for the girls. They are filled with candy and homemade chocolate covered oreos. I think they turned out pretty great, if I do say so myself.....something different and a little more hip than the typical Easter "basket".

Spring Had Sprung
In early spring we have the most beautiful white flower trees in our yard and all throughout our neighborhood. They are gorgeous but fleeting. They lose their petals after only a few weeks and when they do it looks like snow in April!

Didn't see enough?
My wonderful partner and best friend Jen notified me that Courtney's party popped up on the Stem Parties Blog this morning. Thank you Jen and, of course Amy for posting it. To see what she said about us click HERE.
Courtney's 10th Rockin' Diva Bash
We just celebrated Courtney's 10th birthday. I can't believe she is already in to the double digits! Her and I talked about this years ago and she promised me she would stop getting bigger. Why can't kids just obey their parents? She had her traditional birthday sleepover with 5 of her closest friends. They had a fabulous diva dinner party complete with elegant party favors, kid friendly 'mock'tails and a 5 star lineup of beautiful cupcakes. Happy Birthday, baby. I hope you had the best day ever! See all the party photos HERE.
And the Winner is....
Do you remember this? My Party with My Peeps Easter Bash from last year won second place in Maddycakes Muse's Easter/Spring Tablescape contest. We are so excited to receive our Bedazzle My Bon Bons gift basket, though I am certain they will be too beautiful to eat! Want to see our competition? Check it out HERE.
Big Fun in the S......Snow?
It was a beautiful day.....tons of snow, no wind and beautiful sunshine. We were outside building for hours and almost broke a SWEAT!
Happy Birthday Skylar
We had a lovely day celebrating Skylar's 8th birthday at the Natural Science Center in Greensboro. By the way, nice party shirt. Who made make that awesome T? hmmmmmmmmm
14? When did this happen?
Where did the last 14 years go? I can not believe my little baby girl is getting so big! Happy Birthday, Cassidy
Courtney's Creation
Ok, I am calling this 'Courtney's Gingerbread House' because if it were not for Courtney it would not have been finished. I have never made a gingerbread house before. I knew it was going to be more difficult than it looked so I even bought a kit to get us started. Even still, we could not get the icing out of the tube, it was a big sticky mess. We could not get the walls to stay togther, the weight of the roof was crushing the walls. Cassidy and I were both ready to chunk it right into the trash can and call it quits! Courtney, however, was determined to finish it. She worked on it forever and very patiently, made it beautiful. She did a great job and I am so proud of her. Didn't it turn out fantastic?
Shake It, Girls!
Courtney and two of her friends (Hailey and Meredith) performed in their school Christmas talent show. Hailey's aunt Kelly choreographed the routine and the girls did a GREAT job! I personalized thier matching outfits so they looked super cute, too!
Happy Halloween
We went 'back to the basics' this year. Let's see we have done, fairy, sheep, little bow peep, lion, gypsy, indian, miss america, cow girl, and so on and so on. I have made many many costumes. Courtney decided to keep it simple this year and she dressed up as a witch. Of course I had to embellish her hat and make her a custom t shirt.....she was a beautiful and glamouous little WITCH!
