My second baby is officially O-N-E. Not only is that hard to process, but this had to be the fastest year of my life. They say it goes by faster with each one, and they weren't kidding. I sure do wish these babies would stop trying to grow up so fast! But what a blessing

Last week I declared this week was going to be Birthday Week. Well, it’s Wednesday, and I’m finally getting around to it! A sinus infection and bronchitis (both kids also got hit with sinus, ear and eye infections) on top of new puppy duty will put you back a few days. Sheesh! So without further...

Corby's Where The Wild Things Are Party I LOVE TO PLAN PARTIES!!!! I love it down to the very littlest of details, I just love everything about it, figuring out a theme, the months of preparations, making invitations, searching for the right decor, getting matching shirts for the fam, figuring out how to coordinate fun food with theme, etc. It might stress me out at times and yes I over do it, but it makes me happy, my kids happy and more so than me, and my kids, it makes others happy. Because what I love more than planning parties is hosting parties! God has built in me the desire to serve others, the gift of hospitality, so it brings me so much joy not only to get to use the creative talents He gave me but the physical one as well! Ryan reminded me this morning, "Hilary, you know, he's only 2?" My response, "he is only 2 once" and though he might not physically remember this day or this party he will see these pictures and see how much love is in them and that is enough for me to continue to do parties the way I like to do them. The funny thing is he loves seeing the pictures as much as they do, so deep down inside he loves this about me too, right, lol?! Why we chose the Where the Wild Things Are, well simple b/c Corby is Wild! I've mentioned before he is by far our wildest one and although he keeps us on our toes, I love this about him. You can see the curiosity and the adventure in his eyes! Obviously I love the book and love to read to the kids but when I saw some WTWTA themed clothes at Target several months back a spark went off and I knew not only would this make for a cute Halloween costume but I could turn it into a party too. The Invite... The Scrapbook Pages from bday shoot... The Party Details... Food- ...From Far awhile across the world he smelled good things to eat I wanted something different to label the food and found these wood piles at Hobby Lobby that were perfect. I just bought chalkboard paint, painted the center and wallah. I typically use sponge brushes but this project called for real brushes After being painted Final Product... Wild Twigs I ended up using dry erase crayons instead of chalk, b/c I do not like chalk and it worked out great and comes off so I can reuse! Wild Thing Claws-Nacho Cheese Bugles Sail Away Jello Wild Fruit Loved these palm leaf plates Where I got the idea for mini wood piles. I found this Rustic Wood Chalkboard on Etsy. The cake and cupcakes were made by a local bakery I've used for years I found this wood cake sand at the same place as the wood chalkboard, love it! Where the Wild Things Are Cupcake Sleeves Gold Crown Cupcake Toppers Wild Thing Napkins Max cookies, my very talented friend made these, they turned out super cute! First picture was a little blurry, here's a better pic to show off these cute cookies Party Favors The kids loved helping assembly the party favors! WTWTA Hersey Kisses Stickers WTWTA Loot bags Chocolate Rock Candy and I made the tags myself I decided it would be fun for each family to go away with a book, so I made a label to go inside Now For the Wild Rumps To Start... Corby's shirt Two Wild I got on Etsy from the shop Beach Town Baby, super, super cute stuff and then my friend Hillary made the rest of ours, I didn't even bother asking Ryan to wear one, lol As our Wild Things came in they were asked to sign a WTWTA book for Corby to keep and his scrapbook page. The Party was at our church, they have these amazing area called the Jungle that church members can rent out. It was probably a little big for Corbs, he didn't steer too far from this little slide seen below but he still loved it. There is just so much room to run around and of course the big kids always enjoy it! Corby and Garrett sliding Cousins Braeleigh and Phoebe Jesse Ally, Brooklyn, and Lizzie Hayden Corbs enjoying a twig Besties loving on bday boy The Princess of Wild Things Colton and Hayden enjoying the Sailboat Jello Ms.Maryn The King enjoying some snacks Sweet Cousin Cori turns 4 tomorrow Going back to play The big boys playing some football Charley and Booga Jade, Lizzie, and Charley Jesse Nixon Cake Time... I try every year to get a fam pic around the cake, this was as good as it got The Kind enjoying his cake The Princess Jake and Haley Lizzie and Ally Brooklyn Boo Nixon and Jade And back to playing some more... What teenage cousins do at a toddler party, lol Love these boys... Corby, Garrett, Jake, Hayden, Jesse, and Nixon The original pictures below, I left poor Nixon out so I photoshoped him the best I could b/c I wanted one with all the boys, lol.

It literally feels like yesterday I was typing up my “I’m Pregnant!!” blog post and now here we are. Fletcher is ONE! I truly can’t believe how quickly the last year has gone and that my girl is a toddler. As you have probably seen on Instagram, we hosted Fletchy’s First Fiesta for her party and it was pretty much the best party we’ve ever thrown. Fletcher had the time of her life and my goal was to make the party as low maintenance as possible so that I could sit back and enjoy time with Fletchy. We accomplished just […]

I'm not one for a Birthday party theme, however I saw this shark with a party hat in the party section at target months before Parkers birthday and I thought he was the cutest thing ever!

We bought a handful of the themed items and then incorporated other ideas to make it more our style. I LOVE how it turned out, it was so much fun! I linked everything right under this that we
