Whether you’re looking for fun summer luau snacks and crafts or you are preparing for a Moana themed birthday party, this post is for you! My kids always love character themed parties but sometimes it’s tough to do (or gets so expensive). The best thing about a Moana themed luau party is that you can do a luau theme. It’s… Read More
Last month, we had the opportunity to host a fun Disney themed preschool playdate. Our preschooler, Abby, is a huge Disney fan and was so excited to throw a fun playdate for her friends. She loves to do crafts so we decided to turn our playdate into a special crafting party with several of her friends. When I host playdates, I… Read More
If you’ve followed along with the blog for a while, you know we are quite the animal lovers. My oldest, Maggie, has loved animals since she was a baby. It’s only fitting that we finally threw a puppy dog themed birthday party. She wants to be a vet when she grows up and (right now) dogs are her favorite animal…. Read More
I’ve had so much fun planning first birthday parties. For Maggie we had a red wagon themed party, for Alex a preppy pink whale theme and Tommy’s 1st birthday party was on Halloween, so we went with a Halloween theme followed by trick or treating. For Miles, I was having trouble deciding on a theme and really wanted something very… Read More

When I told my girls the idea I had for a holiday party, I thought their heads might explode. We were going to plan party that included: their friends, American Girl dolls, baking and holiday fun. They screamed with excitement when I told them and then we got right to planning. I wanted to do a baking party with the girls… Read More
If you’ve followed this blog for a while, you are probably well aware that we have an animal lover in our house (or a few). Each year as Christmas approaches, she comes up with a list of gifts she’s like. All of which are living. This year Maggie told me her Christmas list includes “just one thing, that’s actually 6 things”…. Read More
For Alex’s 5th birthday party, she requested to have a slumber party. I explained that we will not be having any extra children sleep over our house until the 4 children that currently live here sleep through the night. By the looks of things, that could be many, many years from now. I offered to have a “no sleeping over… Read More
