A Garden Party


It is hard to believe our little lady turned Four this month. Since she won’t stop growing, her requested theme of a Garden Party seemed quite fitting. We included all of her special requests including planting flowers, making butterflies & eating big carrots. I swear she is part bunny! Carrots (the big pointy ones in particular) are her favorite food. We incorporated flowers & garden elements into every detail. And made sure to have activities both the kids & adults would enjoy. I’m so glad that some of my real life blog friends (Mandy, Joni & Lesley) & their babes were able to join us for the fun too…

Oh my gosh, Kristin!!! This just oozes charm and elegance and you capture it perfectly in that darling picture of her!!
Oh my gosh – stop it. I am having twitchy gorgeousness overload. You even made cornhole glamorous. I am impressed. Love every detail!
I would have been the most annoying guest ever, bc I would have been making a fuss over every single detail (and trust me, I've noticed them all…right down to the gold sprayed food baskets!!)…and I'd likely have done all the gushing in an octave only heard by dogs. Bc that's just what your projects do to me!!! Can I feature it in Friday Five?!?
Absolutely beautiful!! Love the color scheme!
Oh my goodness – this may be the most darling party of all time!
Gorgeous party. Completely in love with the tissue flowers. Obsessed with your style. XO
Holy freaking birthday party! That ladder shelf is just awesome. The first picture of Chloe looks so much like you- she is really cute! My son would be smitten:) I can't believe she likes those carrots!
Wowzer! Can I be your daughter? This is so totally beautiful. What a happy day π
