This past weekend we celebrated my daughter's birthday with a movie party, and I wanted to share the party details with you! My daughter is kind of obsessed with Divergent (and all the other books in the series), so she wanted to watch the movie outdoors on a big screen with her friends. We set up my parents' projector, big outdoor screen, and some chairs and blankets for the movie. You just can't watch a movie without treats, right?! Before we got all settled in for the show, the kids ... [ Read More ]
Disney Princess Royal Easter Egg Hunt
A big thank you to Disney, Walmart, and Collective Bias, Inc. for sponsoring our Disney Princess Easter Egg Hunt. As always, all ideas and opinions are 100% my own. #DisneyEaster #CollectiveBias Every year our four kids look forward to our annual Easter egg hunt. They talk about the hunt for days before it actually takes place, and eagerly discuss what they think will be inside their eggs. In addition to our regular egg hunt, I thought it would be fun to throw a Disney Princess Royal Easter ... [ Read More ]

When I was at CHA in Anaheim in January, I was invited to an ... [ Read More ]

I have received countless emails and comments asking how these paper lantern jellyfish were made, so I wanted to put a tutorial together for those of you who ... [ Read More ]
DIY Dinosaur Dig Excavation Kits
For my dinosaur-obsessed son's last birthday, I put together a fun dinosaur party for him and his friends. Last week I shared with you the dinosaur bone invitations (made from salt dough). Today I'll be sharing a fun DIY dinosaur dig excavation kit that I made and gave to each child at the party as a party favor! Any budding paleontologist would love to dig for dinos with these fun kits. These kits were put together a day or two before the party, and the kids ... [ Read More ]
Nautical Party Suckers
Happy Friday! Today I have a very simple but very cute tutorial for you- nautical party suckers! I am absolutely head over heels in love with anything nautical, as I'm sure you know by now. ;) If you're planning a nautical or under the sea party or baby shower (like the gorgeous under the sea party I put together here), then these suckers will be the perfect addition! It took me under 20 minutes to make an entire set of 24, and the suckers were pre-bought to make this a very quick ... [ Read More ]
