Hello again. Not much to report around here. The week was super busy and went by quickly. Which I guess is a good thing.
I’m always looking for new party inspiration. With it being graduation season this one popped up on my Pinterest feed. I am in love with the black, white, and gold color scheme right now. Plus this sign is perfection for a graduation! Perfect for a high school or college graduation party.
View the rest of this party design here. What a fun website to get hooked on! Excuse me while I go pin half their website 😉
Until next post…xoxo Becca
Hi everyone and welcome back! Over the weekend I hosted a baby sprinkle for one of my best friends. “What’s a baby sprinkle” you say? Wellllll, it’s to celebrate baby number 2, 3, 4… but not as formal as a baby shower. When you’ve already had one baby you don’t really need the big ticket items for the additional little ones. A sprinkle focuses on the every day necessities (i.e. diapers, wipes, clothes, gift cards).
My friend is having another boy and I wanted to give her a day to relax with the girls and celebrate her little man. I think I accomplished that 🙂 Enjoy some pictures from the sprinkle.

I loathe baby shower games. So I opted for activities everyone could choose to participate in. First up, instead of a guestbook I asked each guest to create a scrapbook page and write a message for baby Aiden. They did an great job, the pages look fun and have the cutest messages! It was easy, I picked up all the supplies from Hobby Lobby and watched for sales on scrapbook items. Everything purchased was 50% off. #winning
Next up was a “guess baby’s birthday” activity. I drew a calendar and each guest was asked to place a sticker on the day they thought baby Aiden would be born and sign it. Then I put it in a frame for my friend to keep. Can’t wait to see who wins! 🙂

Food: All us girls know food at showers is pretty typical. For once I didn’t stray too far from a typical menu, but I did make it easy on myself by using Chick-fil-a chicken salad and fruit tray. All I had to do was buy croissants, make a side dish, and put all the Chick-fil-a items in nice serving dishes. The punch was easy too. 2 packets of Blue Raspberry Lemonade Kool-Aid and 2 2-liter bottles of Sprite. Easy, easy, easy! The beverage dispenser was a deal I grabbed a few weeks ago from Sur la Table.
