Valentine's Party

How do we like

to celebrate the most

romantic holiday of the year?

By throwing a party

and celebrating with friends,

new and old.

This party really brought out
my inner Martha Stewart.

All that browsing through

blogs must really be getting to me.

The idea for these pom-poms

actually came from

Martha Stewart.

Easy to make,

huge impact,

and really really inexpensive.

I made these

water bottle labels

in one afternoon

while Oliver was napping.

This is when all that

old scrapbook paper

comes in handy.

Because lets be honest,

I probably will never

catch up on all my scrapbooking.

I made these sugar cookies

as party favors. 

I have always wanted to know

how to make cookies

that look perfectly frosted.

Thanks to the blog,

I am baker,

now I know.

It was fun

planning and hosting.

It also made the holiday

more memorable.

We can't wait to do it again

next year!
