I know probably every parent feels like the first year flies by, but I really can't believe that Cooper is one. ONE! It seems like just yesterday that I was announcing his birth here on the blog, and showing you precious photos of Beckett meeting his new little brother for the very first time {those photos still bring tears to my eyes!}. A couple of weekends ago we invited all of our family, and our friends with kids near Cooper's age, to help us celebrate this milestone birthday with a ... View the Post

I love these chalkboard fabric pennants for many reasons - because they are reusable and ... View the Post
{entertaining with style} One Year in a Flash First Birthday Party
I finally found time to go through all of the photos from Beckett’s 1st birthday party, so I thought I would share the details about this fun event. While I know that he will never remember this party, it was still important to me that it be fabulous (but without breaking the bank). Also, because the party was only a couple of weeks after Christmas, I wanted to keep the prep time manageable. I started scouring Pinterest for birthday party inspiration soon after ... View the Post

If you can relate to any of this, then let me introduce you to Cassondra Selby. She has officially earned the title of Coolest Mom by ... View the Post
