3rd Annual Boo Bash 2011

Wow! What a bash we had this year! It was our 3rd year and bigger than ever before. Lot of prep work (and lots of Pinterest inspiration) went into making a grad party. You already saw my Spider Web fails, but I did make some very successful pumpkin whoopie pies

Little Man 1st Birthday Party

This party was so much fun to plan. 

We had talked with the mom multiple times to get a feel for what theme she wanted for her Little Man’s first birthday.  She really loved the idea of a vintage feel Little Man party full of mustaches’, newsboy hats and neckties.  Back in July & August we started collecting ideas on our Pinterest Inspiration Board for the party planned for the middle of December.

Plans started coming together after our Boo Bash and by the time the party rolled around we had completed many of the ideas from our board.

Our version of the banner. We were able to email it to the parents, they printed, cut, and assembled it.

Almond Bark covered Oreo’s are always a hit and gone in a split

I (Amber) did not get to actually attend the party because of a commitment at church, but I loved seeing all the pictures from the party. The kids had been asked to dress up for the party and everyone looked so cute.
