This simple recipe works well with any type of flour. I suggest a combination of half wholemeal and half white bread flour for the best texture.

Ever have those kind of days where, after the fact, you continue to relive it over and over in your brain? Just thinking over the festivities of that day and every detail that made it special.. The first time I ever did this was for my wedding. I was awake all night and unable to come down from the high of the ceremony and the amazing reception. I did this again the day that the girls were born. I could stop staring at them - all night. And I did it again last night. This weekend was one of those times. I couldn't stop thinking about what a great time with weekend was - with our closest friends and family there to share it with our family of four, to celebrate our baby girls Parker and Jolie. The theme started as Pancakes and Pajamas. After scouring Pinterest, it turned into 'If You Give a Pig a Pancake". AND then I made the transition to polka dot everything.. So, in the end, these 2 year olds' birthday party was a mesh of all those things. And I am so proud of how everything turned out:) Invites went out the first week of November and shared the theme and colors of purple, pink, and gold - and also instructed the guests to wear their favorite jammies. I was ELATED when our sweet adult friends showed up in their flannel pjs and slippers. These sweet 2 year olds had a BLAST. Last year they were overwhelmed. Cried through eating anything. Cried through the singing of Happy Birthday. Cried through the 'cake smash'. Parker wouldn't leave my lap. Jolie stayed close to her BB. It was sort of a mess. After everyone was gone, my girls turned into their normal selves and inhaled every last bit of food I put front of them. This year was much different. They knew this day was coming and was so excited that it was finally here! "Is it your birthday today??" enthusiastically nodding and bawling some form of the word 'birthday'. "How old are you? Are you TWO??" "TWOOOOOOOO" My little BFF's couldn't have a better partner to share this young life with. Their actual birthday was the day of the party, so it made turning 2 extra special! the D E C O R I kept the decor and menu simple. I found myself to be SO thankful for that at midnight on Friday night before the party. A real stack of confetti pancakes with cake icing to blow their two candles out while we all sang 'Happy Birthday' The guests got to their choice of strawberry or vanilla cupcakes with buttercream icing, confetti sprinkles, and gold glitter dust. the M E N U The party was early in the day (10am), so breakfast was served! A full Pancake Bar with all kinds of toppings to decorate your buttermilks. Fruit salad, smoked bacon, and maple chicken breakfast sausage were also served. REAL maple syrup I had a half second thought to go IHOP style and offer several different flavored syrups.. and then I came across the idea of flavored butter after Ashley had pinned it to our secret board and I decided I loved that idea much better Piggie Punch was served in 16oz glass milk bottles and paper straws. Chocolate milk for the kiddos and mimosas for the adults My children were again overwhelmed, but really loving having all of their little friends and familiar adults around. They ate a little here and there, but really.. they saved their appetites for all the sugar. H A P P Y birthday to Y O U We had practiced blowing out the candles beforehand, so I knew this wouldn't be an issue and they would love it! Jolie blew out her candle before we could even get Parker close enough. I have pictures with Jordan's hand over her mouth! So hilarious! We sang. We jumbled their names (because some said Parker and Jolie, while others said Jolie and Parker) and then they blew out the candles with so much delight. Watching their joy over such little things makes my heart want to explode. party G U E S T S Our babysitter, Dana - we ADORE her! When she walks in the door, Mom and Dad cease to exist. Auntie and Uncle J Our sweet little friend Lucas pulling game on Parker. She isn't buying it. Look at that stone face. Our other little friend Ayla sharing her cupcake. This little girls talked about the cupcakes from the moment she walked in the door - so sharing was huge and oh-so-sweet! We decided to attempt a picture with all the babes SO many outtakes, but all of them were my favorite because someone of doing something uber precious. I am personally a fan of the top right.. Landon was busy busy with his cupcake and had zero interest in hopping up on that couch with all the ladies. Baby Juliette (the newest member of our Supper Club crew) Jacob (just two weeks younger than Parker and Jolie) Fridge Face Parker More of the stone cold. She was so tired and coming down off of syrup, icing, fruit.. and now Smarties we were bribing all of the kiddos with to stay seated. Cousin Kendall (four months younger than the girls) Silly Jolie! Sweet Lucas! Love this kid Miss Ayla Baby CeCe (Lucas is her big brother) Gentry (Aylas' oldest sister) The is the best of family pictures - and I sort of adore it. My girls are so happy. I am so happy.. and none of us are looking at the camera. Perfection. A F T E R party Everyone left about 1pm, and Jordan and I attempted every which way to get our house back in order. The girls finally laid down for a nap - crashing hard the moment we turned on the sound machines. I laid down and slept with them - 4 hours later we were all awake and starving! Jordan and I decided to get dressed (like out of our jammies) and head out for dinner with just our family of four. bow / sweatshirt (similar) After dinner we took the girls to pick out their birthday present from Dad - a goldfish! At least that was our intention. We walked into Petsmart with the intention of getting 2 seventeen cent goldfish and a plastic bowl for $4.99. After expressing our desire to the fish expert at the store, he explained that we needed 1 gallon of water for every inch of fish.. basically - unless we were setting up a 10 gallon tank with a filter, yadda, yadda, he wouldnt recommend getting the goldfish. Okay. So. What do we get? $52 later (after getting everything we 'needed') we welcomed one brightly colored Beta fish to our family. bow / vest / denim shirt / boots Super low maintenance fun and the girls really love getting to feed him:) I still can't believe the weekend is over. It went by so quickly.. but it only seems fit for how fast this year has flown. My house looks as if nothing was out of the norm this weekend. It doesn't look like there were 28 people playing, chatting, eating, and celebrating together. Although. The huge number 2 balloon is still floating, and the glitter 'Let Them Eat Pancakes' is still hanging on the mirror in the kitchen. I can't bring myself to take those down just yet. They match so well with our hot pink and purple Christmas tree. I couldn't have asked for a better celebration of life for these two.

Happy Saturday readers! Today is a particularly joyful one for me, as I get to see one of my best friends tie the knot this afternoon. I am so excited for her
Midnight feasts and sweet treats, ghost stories and giggles this is what slumber parties are made of. Slumber parties are a great option for girls especially when they reach that 9-11 age where they are pre-teen and too young for the whole disco vibe, but far too mature for any of the baby stuff of their previous parties;) It requires slightly more patience and admin on the parents part, because everyone knows with the amount of sugar and junk food involved the girls are sure to be up to mischief half the night. But despite the extra effort it is worth it as slumber parties are definitely the ones to be remembered. I still have the fondest memories of going to sleep over parties, where you all camp out in the lounge tucked in on mattresses like sardines and talk and giggle into the early hours of the morning when you sneak off to the kitchen for a midnight feast on all the left over party snacks. Then it's candy dreams for everyone until early the next morning when the chatter and laughter starts again and the smell of flapjacks drifts into room. Of course it doesn't hurt getting some extra help when it comes to slumber parties and that's where we come in to make things a little easier. For this slumber party we provided some decor, food and party packs to take at least a little stress off the birthday mother. We had a small room to decorate and it was really about just making it cute and girly. For the entrance to the room we hang thin feather boas over the door that the girls would walk though. This created a secretive effect, like the room was now separated from the rest of the house by this 'magical girl zone curtain'. The room itself we draped with cerise and purple organza and fairy lights and added a happy birthday banner as well. For the food, keeping everything bright and colorful was the call of the day, which resulted in these fun cheerful cupcakes. We also made cookies in the shape of eye masks and I stuck with using the fun bright colors. Piping the word 'relax' onto all those cookies certainly was tiring on the hand, but it really worked to finish them off perfectly. Then the cake had to be little girls all tucked in next to each other in a big bed. By special request of the birthday girl, she was to be the only character awake while her friends slept beside her. The party packs were great as they basically made themselves look good with minimal effort on our part. We found these gorgeous handbag style boxes in the vibrant colors of the party. All I needed to do was add a button, a tag and some gems and they were good to go. There is nothing at a slumber party that actually makes the guests want to go to sleep. Perhaps they are called slumber parties, because of the result they have on the parents subsequently and not as an indication of what actually happens at the party. Sleeping really has nothing to do with it;)
If you're looking to sprinkle a bit of magic into your nights, you're in for a treat. Here are some awesome slumber party themes and ideas for both kids and adults. You know, those nights filled with laughter, games, and delicious treats that leave everyone with happy memories.
