I’ve been doing a bunch of looking around on the Internet trying to get inspiration for where I want to head with My Lil’ Guy. I’ve looked at party blogs and home decor blogs to get ideas on current trends and what people want. One thing I have...

Around the time of my youngest birthday party (way back in November), I started to get it in my head that I needed to be better about blogging more often. I’m pretty sure I read it some where and started to get concerned that I wasn’t blogging enough...

After considering a couple other cute themes, my sister-in-law and I decided on a Veggie Tales theme for our boys’ 2nd birthday party. The boys are only two days apart so a joint party just makes sense and Bob and Larry gave us a pair of characters to...

Well the weather here can’t seem to decide if it’s fall or not. One day it’s crisp and cool and the next day we are back to t-shirt weather. But I’m really ready for fall so I just choose to not pay attention to the weather man. So in my...
