If you’ve been around here for a while, you know that we take dog birthdays very seriously. We’ve been throwing pawties since 2012 (starting with our sweet Charlie) and Mabel just celebrated her third birthday, which means I’ve officially logged enough parties to know exactly what works, what’s worth splurging on, and what I’d do …
Birthday
For Caroline’s 11th birthday, we threw the ultimate glow in the dark party—and it was all her idea. She’s a party planner at heart and knew exactly what she wanted: a “late night” dance party with her besties, glowing neon lights, and a slime station (obviously). She asked the girls to wear their brightest colors, …
Caroline’s 10th Birthday Party was the perfect mix of fun and creativity! Here, I’ve laid out the details of the decor, activities, and food that made the party such a blast. This year, Caroline wanted something a little different, so we added a twist to the classic pool party by combining it with a patch …
We spent last weekend in Asheville to celebrate my birthday! It was one of the best birthdays I’ve ever had and I felt so lucky to ring in 37 with my favorite people in my favorite place doing some of my favorite things! Here’s what was on our Asheville weekend itinerary… We arrived early Saturday …
Last week Thomas turned 8! On his birthday, we celebrated with a morning wake-up to lots of balloons and streamers, donuts for breakfast, birthday presents, and I surprised him with a homemade ice cream cake for dessert! Over the weekend we threw him a party with all his favorite things — a sleepover with his …
We had an absolutely amazing weekend! It was jam-packed with fun and I can honestly say I am happy it’s a Teacher Work Day today so the kids can have a Snooze Day! Friday Friday night Matt planned a fun birthday dinner at Dilworth Tasting Room to celebrate me and my birthday twin, Laura! He …
Last week Sprinkles turned TWO (well, at least we think so)! It’s still a little unclear how old she actually was when we adopted her from another family (we believe she was somewhere around a few months old). However, it honestly feels like she’s been part of our family for much longer than 2 years. …
A few weeks ago Matt asked me if he could host a few guys over to watch the Ryder Cup golf tournament. Then we realized the tournament actually coincided with my birthday…so I said…”OH YES!…but let’s add the ladies and make it a party!” Y’all know I love a themed party so I immediately got …
Thomas is officially 6! It’s so crazy to think our littlest is SIX! And surprisingly, I am not sad about it at all. In fact, I LOVE this age so much right now and wish I could bottle it up forever. He is SO DANG FUNNY, extremely outgoing and is an absolute blast to be …
Caroline is SEVEN! I say this every year but I honestly cannot believe how fast she’s growing. We celebrated our sweet girl last weekend with lots of special surprises including a super fun party with her friends. Here’s a recap of the weekend celebrations! Friday morning Caroline burst threw the wall of colorful streamers hanging …
Sprinkles is officially ONE! Well, I mean, I actually have no idea how old she is. In fact, when we re-homed her I thought she was several years old and didn’t know until Matt picked “Sally” up from her previous family that she was actually still a BABY… Anyway, Sprinkles secretly became part of our …
