Now, onto the decor…
I didn’t do much. Well, I did. I just did the same thing everywhere. I made the card garlands…
(just cut a slit in the middle of the card and thread some fat ribbon. this one had about 20 cards on it.)
(we did horizontal and vertical garlands. this one was asa’s birthday 9/20/08.)

I think I may have mentioned that Asa’s first birthday party was FUN! I enjoyed it so much. My parents came over to help me out before the party and if they had not been there, it would not have been as cute as it was. Once the party started I didn’t feel like I [...]
Asa…my Ace of Hearts…he’s turning 1 on the 20th…
AND I AM IN FULL FLEDGED PARTY PLANNING MODE!

Ah, and now onto my favorite part of any party—the food!! From the very beginning I wanted to do apple food. You know, because Snow White eats an apple? Granted, it was poison and this food was supposed to be good, but still—I liked the connection.

Color Party. We did purple for Lydia’s first birthday. My friend Whitney had a red party once. But how about a multi-color party? This is what my blogging bud Christine did for her daughter—and the best part? They tie-dyed! Colorful, indeed!
Snowflake Party. How could I not include this?!
This Wonderland birthday is my dream party. You [...]

I had my first baby shower last week! It was so fun. I love baby showers. And wedding showers. And parties of any kind. You know I’m a little freaked when it comes to themes. And this shower was no exception!
It was a joint shower with one of my sisterchicks, Mandi. Who is due…any minute. [...]
I just found THE coolest thing ever. Here’s reason #253 I’d like to get remarried (to the same person, of course)…
A TRAVELING PHOTO BOOTH
You can rent this photo booth and everyone at your wedding (or party, I guess) can hop in and get as many pictures taken as they want!
And it automatically prints two copies, [...]
