Birthday Party Photography

Gabriel was recently invited to one of the coolest parties we have ever been to! I mean the cool-est! There were mermaids and water, and crafts, and music and swimming... and a killer bounce-house-water-slide.

Well, Gabriel wanted to go swimming, and I got suckered conned drew the short straw, to go with him. But I am so glad, because the sly, ninja like photographer, Rya, caught us having the best.time.ever.

I love the unabashed awesome fun we are having, it's dap-smag on our faces... can't hide it.

Thank you, Rya, this is an image that we will cherish for a long long long time.

Party Theme: Sprinkles!

So, I have an issue, I love sprinkles, lots of them... I really don't care of how they taste, but I could nuts using them as decor... so when I saw a sprinkle themed party, I sort of got a little too excited.

This party theme really has no age requirements. Sprinkles could be used for any get together, baby shower, birthday party, bridal shower, you name it, sprinkles make any occasion colorful and tasty!

Any one with me on the fun'ness of sprinkles?

Cupcake Cake

First of all, this cupcake cake is way too pretty for a one-year old!

Ok, we're just pouting because we want one. But really two-digit ages have more cupcakes, so that's a valid reason for having our own cupcake cake right now, right?

So maybe I can do this for my Fourttiesadhgdkafjgit.... (intentional typo)

I am still deciding what to do for Zachary's first birthday, maybe something like this? Maybe?

Sparkler Cupcakes

These cupcakes just scream celebration! The simple cupcake liners and frosting also let the sparklers take center stage whether they're part of the menu at a wedding or a crazy cool birthday party!

You can turn the ordinary into extraordinary with a just a super fun touch, and plus 4th of July is right around the corner!

Lanterns: The Very Hungry Caterpillar

After hanging ALOT of paper lanterns for a party this past weekend, and seeing the beautiful results, we need another party right now so we can recreate this adorable paper lantern version of The Very Hungry Caterpillar!

Maybe I have have a party for Gabriel, a 2 and-1/2-and-a-month-and-a-couple-of-days party?
