Party Weekend

We had a super full weekend jam packed with fun and way too many sweets!

The festivities started on Saturday when we celebrated my niece Natalya's 5th birthday!  It was so much fun, and my sister Yvonne totally outdid herself!  She planned the most fun zebra/hot pink themed party and it turned out so awesome.  Since I've been feeling a little under the weather today, I'm just gonna post a few pictures from the party and you can see for yourself how great everything turned out!

My sister and her friend made these yummy cupcakes and cake...


The birthday girl and her cousin!

The number five cookies Alyssa and I baked and my sister decorated.

My sister Dolly & I.

More treats...chocolate covered pretzal sticks!

My mom, "Grandma A" & Natalya.

Super cute treat bags!


The next party we went to was on Sunday afternoon to celebrate our nephew Elias's 10th birthday!  My SIL Ynidra did a great job putting a Sponge Bob themed party together!

Here's Elias and my MIL, Sylvia.

and some cute and yummy cake!

After we ate, the kids got to hit the pinata outside.  This was Audrey's first time and she looked so cute!

Here's Alyssa and her cousin Breanna being silly and posing for the camera!

All in all, it was a super fun weekend and now this week is all about planning for Audrey's birthday party!  I'm also looking forward to getting some packages in the mail this week, including Alivia's bedding which is supposed to arrive tomorrow!  I'm getting excited!

Did you straighten Alyssa's hair? It looks different - so grown up!!

Looks like a fun party - I would have been in a complete sugar coma after it was over. :)

I love parties....looks like you all had a blast! I'm impressed with all of the decorations and treat bags, etc. What creativity!

Sorry I haven't been by lately. Last week was really tough, and this week my boys are home from college (Spring Break). We're spending as much time together as possible. :-)

Hope the rest of your week is great!
