Oh boy, do I love to throw a party. I think I was born to do it! Throwing a party is so rewarding, because you get to see all your hard work on display and sometimes get to see people enjoying it. I remember when I threw my first “big” party all by myself. It was for a friend’s engagement party. I spent months planning it and and wanted every detail to be perfect and I enjoyed EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF IT. Even though I was running back and fourth from my moms and sisters carrying food that was cooking in both ovens, freaking out if the swarovski crystals were not facing the right way, making sure all the food was still hot….haha, I still loved it. : ) I have been told a lot lately that I should start doing this on the side and I am seriously contemplating it. Yesterday my friend Sarah asked me to help her plan her sweet daughter’s Birthday in September. Brooklyn requested Care Bear’s (gosh I used to love those guys) so I thought up a Care Bear Carnival theme! There is going to be a bouncy house, a popcorn machine, a hot dog cart, possibly a cotton candy machine! Oh its going to be fabulous! I am soooo excited to help with this party and I cant wait to see Miss. Brooklyn’s face when she sees it all! Can you feel my excitement!!!! I am also planning my friend, Niki’s baby shower in October and Kristin’s daughter is turning 8 in November and I helping Kristin plan a “Young Hollywood party” AHH its going to be so much fun! : ) The best thing about all of this is Drew knows how much I enjoy it and fully supports me on it. I caught him telling Sadie yesterday that her mama was really good at throwing parties. haha. Love ya babe! ; )
Here is a picture of my very first party. I have learned A LOT since then, but I will always remember this party!
PS. The party planning blog is still going to happen, but we are waiting till my sister gets back into the groove of things after she has Bree. So stay tuned for that one. Speaking of Bree…. She will be here tmrw!! We would appreciate thoughts and prayers for Rachel and this sweet baby girl. Tomorrow I will be posting on Rachel’s blog as well as mine with pictures of this Sassy girl. I CANT WAIT! Have a great day guys! XOXO
