Tips on Throwing a Surprise Birthday Brunch
A couple of weeks ago I teamed up with my besties husband, Jack, to throw Kristin a surprise 30th birthday. Technically her 30th isn’t until July 17th but they will be out of town on her actual birthday and I will probably still be recovering due to Ralph’s arrival, so we thought to really throw her off we would do a surprise birthday brunch 5 weeks early.
A Rustic Baby Boy Shower
Last weekend my besties and I threw a baby shower for one of our favorite moms to be and her future baby boy Charlie! It was actually the second baby shower I have been apart of in the last 3 weeks and it was just as much fun to plan as the first one we threw!
Funny enough all of us hostesses are currently pregnant. You would think since we have all been best friends since the 4th grade that we planned to have 2017 babies (within weeks of each other) but we actually never even talked about timing until each of us finally admitted we were expecting. Ok, ok back to the baby shower details!
Holiday Tablescaping with Target
Earlier this week I was asked to attend a private dinner at The Joule Hotel hosted by Target and Camilla Alves benefiting her and her husband, Matthew McConaughey’s, foundation Just Keep Livin. Just Keep Livin is an organization that provides a safe, positive environment for students to gather after school and make new friends. This was such a special holiday themed night that included some sweet (old) friends and many new ones.
One of my favorite things about the evening (besides the company) was being given the opportunity by Target to style a holiday themed table for less than $200.
