Kate and I had a blast putting together all of the cute little touches for our sister’s baby shower a couple of weeks ago and couldn’t wait to share the final pics with you. We went a little overboard with the theme, but our sister was so surprised and thrilled with all of the fussing! My favorite part was the two color letterpress in coral and pool invitation that Haute Papier (warning – shameless self-promotion) created just for her, though I think the mom-to-be’s were all of the clear balloon that looked like bubbles, including the giant ones that were three feet wide! Now, we just need to be patient for another few days until this baby gets here! Congrats to Ash & Darryl on the little miss!

Surprise Anniversary Party – The Setup
This past weekend, my sisters and I hosted a SURPRISE 30th Anniversary Party for my parents. Let me just say, I’m never doing a surprise party again! While the planning was SO much fun, the stress of keeping it all a secret and telling fibs was just too much! And to top if off, Old Man Weather was so cooperative with a week full of rain, that we had to change venues the day before! Alas, the party went off without a hitch and was, well, a surprise! They didn’t have a clue! Stay tuned to see their reactions in Part 2 tomorrow!
