Cowboy Theme Shower

This year was hopping and happening! I was on a party high after May - Chick Pea's Shower in February, Sweet Pea's Birthday in March, Nephew's plane birthday in March, this baby shower in April and Sugar Pea's Birthday in May. The wedding in August was the beginning of a two week vacation from Michigan to Georgia, then home to Texas. 

Back to this shower. Our family was very blessed to move onto a street where people are so awesome! Sweet Pea became instant friends with a little girl down the street who is just one month younger than her. So naturally, the mommy and I became friends. She then became pregnant with her their first son. I jumped on throwing a shower. She picked the theme and I went from there. I've been wanting to throw a shower/birthday party like this for so long. 


Of course the cake pops were done by NV Cupcakes. They also did mini haystacks, s'mores pops, and baby brownie bites. The Hot Sauce party favors were done by Dave's Heaven Sent Hot Sauce. Photography by Sarah Tucker Photography and everything else by More Peas, Please.


Here's the table scape. I wanted some smaller versions of foods again {baby size}. So I did a brisket {brought home from Iowa} to make baby sandwiches, put salad in little cups, small cups of mac-n-cheese, little tiny cornbread muffins, fruits, and veggies. The hanging things were from Party City. The banner and menus made by More Peas, Please. 




These cake pops were PERFECT! They matched the balloons so greatly as well as the theme.


Here I made the favor tags for the S'mores I sent home with the BBQ sauce made by Dave's Heaven Sent Hot Sauce. I made her some Thank You notes too. The banner was recycled from my nephew's party, but that was also made by More Peas, Please. The monogrammed gifts for Big Sister and little baby were so perfect.


Along with the Mason Jar glasses, I found some cow print straws and then cut out chalkboard contact paper for the labels. The guests also got to take these home. Contact paper for the boot as well. This is a close up of the menu. MPP made the squeeze bottle covers and the diaper cake also. 


 Happy Momma with her new gifts for baby boy. The majority of everything was sports themed! 



This was such a sweet photo of Big Sister with mommy...snuggles for baby brother!

Minnie Themed Birthday Party

It's fun how through the years, children change their favorite things. Even day to day. Minnie Mouse seemed to be a very popular choice the year we chose to do this for Sugar Pea's party. It was our first party since we moved back to Texas. We planned the majority of this from out of town because we went to California for my Aunt's graduation just a couple of weeks prior to this. Since we were finally back near family, we knew this would be a HUGE party.

Some of the things for this party include the dress I found on Etsy at Lil' Bug Clothing, the topiaries, sign, food tents, and banners were all made by my party planner from San Diego {who did Sweet Pea's Cinderella Birthday}. Birthday Blessing tags were made by More Peas, Please. Cake and cake pops were made by NV Cupcakes. The cookies were made by my friend in California who also did the cake pops for Sweet Pea's Cinderella Party. Photography was by the wonderful Sarah Tucker Photography.




Here are the cake pops - they did an AMAZING job! These hopefully will serve as inspiration to other bakeries to do sculpted pops. The girls there tell me all of the time how much I get them out of the box. I say, mission accomplished. While I have a vision, they always exceed the expectation.



Here was the dessert table. The brownies were SO good! I made them from a recipe I found on Pinterest. The Edible Arrangements gave me a new love chocolate covered pineapple. The pretzels are covered in red chocolate and I put pearls on them to mimic the polka dots of Minnie's Dress. The banners were made by my planner in California.


Each favor bag had a personalized embroidered hat from Disneyland complete with a personalized Mickey {for boys} or Minnie {for girls} cookie. The shaped heads were for the birthday Blessings.


Here are Sweet Pea and Sugar Pea in their outfits for the party. Yes, Sugar Pea got socks and yes she was super happy about it! She is becoming the most grateful child.




And here we are! The problem with trying to get photos after their first birthday is that the adults start to throw fits too because we are MAKING them take photos! Therefore, we changed how we're doing it now that Sugar Pea can write her own name. That saves me from designing too.
