Happy 2 Birthday Molly!

Today we had the pleasure of attending sweet Molly's second birthday party. All of the kids had a fun afternoon filled with sweets and bouncing. It was such a fun little party! Vivi enjoyed bouncing in the bounce house with all of her friends. It is definitely a balance exercise! There was also cupcake decorating, which was fun seeing the kids different personalities and ages. Baily and Lizzie were making sweet little masterpieces while Vivi, Molly, Henry, and Charlotte were more into the frosting and mixing of toppings. Vivi ate all of the frosting off her cupcake before even considering putting some decorations on it. We had a wonderful afternoon and were so happy to celebrate sweet Molly!

Vivi's Turns Two

Today we celebrated Vivi's second birthday with our family and friends. I can't believe that she is already two. It seems like just yesterday we were living in Fort Worth and on our way to the hospital to meet this precious girl. She has brought so much joy and laughter into our lives and we are so incredibly thankful that God blessed us with such an amazing gift. We have so much fun seeing her grow and develop into a little person. She is fascinated by animals, and has a recent obsession with turtles and frogs. I had seen this Lilly Pulitzer inspired turtle party earlier this year and when the brainstorming started I could not get this party out of my head. With the help of Pinterest and other party blogs I became the ultimate party planner, and had a blast doing it!

The party could not have gone any smoother. The kids had a great time playing with each other, in the playroom or outside, working up an appetite. We all enjoyed light lunch topped off with mini vanilla cupcakes done by the talented Lindsey Levine of Batter Up Pastry Boutique in Fort Worth. All of the sweets were delicious, and so incredibly cute! The kids birthdays are always a highlight of my year. I loved celebrating our sweet little girl and decorating for the bash too!

Here are a few pictures from the party. Enjoy!

Happy Birth Day Cade!

Sweet baby Cade was born yesterday morning and is so loved! There was a flock of family waiting for the news of his birth and many of them met him when he was just minutes old. Here are some pictures from his special day. We have been blessed with a beautiful, healthy, BIG boy and couldn't be any happier.

Vivi's Sweet Shop - The Party

About a year and a half ago, when we first found out we were having a little girl, I bought this dress for Vivi's first birthday. It has been my inspiration for her birthday party from day one, and what great inspiration it proved to be!

I found a great boutique on Etsy to design the most perfect Sweet Shop invitations for the day and found inspiration for the party decorations from many, many blogs online. Bit by bit over the past couple of weeks I put together different decorations for the party and bought the perfect sweets for the buffet. I have to say that I am more than pleased with how everything came out, and I believe the birthday girl was as well! Her favorite things from the party were the cupcakes and the balloons, at least I know she is easy to please! Overall, the party was a hit with everyone. It was wonderful to have family and friends come by to visit and show of my pride and joy! As exhausting as it is to plan and execute a party to near perfection, I enjoyed every second of it and look forward to her 2nd birthday next year!
