Christmas in July Birthday Party
Why not combine the two best days of the year into one fun party? That’s exactly what we did! We turned the A/C down, stayed inside & decked the halls for a Christmas in July Birthday Party. Once I thought of the idea, I knew immediately I would pull out some of my favorite Christmas…

speaking of parties…how about brunch & some Zumba?
An extremely supporting reader, Lorena threw a Zumba & brunch party for her bday! She invited all her besties, lavished them with a delicioso brunch, and then had her Zumba instructor teach everyone some new moves! How fun. Isn’t this just wonderful? Who wouldn’t feel good after a party like this? I love the idea…
“Cute As A Bug” Birthday Party
2 + 2 = 4 As with every year that passes I can’t help but reflect on how much all 3 kids have grown. It’s simply mind boggling to me at how fast it goes. Even though it was the twin’s birthday we were celebrating, their big brother has a *starring* role in their lives. It’s because…

Yep. It’s my birthday! I’m not bashful to admit it. It’s just a number – right??? Gulp. But it’s the big 4-0. What happened? the time…good grief. It goes by in a blink. Nothing special planned for today. Tomorrow, however Chief & I are going out & we got a sitter!!! So I thought I would…
