Delainey's Dora Party

D-d-d-d-d-Dora, D-d-d-d-d-Dora, Dora, Dora, Dora the explorer..........can't get this song out of my head after planning this Dora y Diego party for sweet little 5 year old Delainey. I never was a big Dora fan, but of course with each party I fall in love with each character. This party was so much fun to plan......and attend. See for yourself.


Oh no!!!Where's the cake?.....Swiper!!

Trying my hand at face painting

So this week I decided to try my hand at face painting, after all what's a kids party planner if she doesn't provide a face painter? Surprisingly I wasn't half bad. I definitely need more practice but I think I did an awesome job for my first try....well first two tries. My vision for this business is huge so I want to learn how to do any and everything that has to do with planning and entertaining for kids. I give myself a year to get everything down pact and I'll share every detail with you along the way.

Justin's Boxing Party

This was my first party as an official business....yeah!!!! It was for a young man named Justin who happens to attend Central Virginia Dance Academy with my daughters. I just knew he would pick a dancing theme of some sort so I had all these great ideas dancing around in my mind, but after talking to him we decided on good ol' boxing. I couldn't find any boxing themed party ideas or decorations online so every idea is an original , except for the invitations which I found after days of searching the web. I did have some bumps in the road but trial and error is the best way to learn and I'll be better prepared for the many parties to come. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I'd love to hear any comments that you have.
