Back in 2009 I met Juli aka “The Garter Girl” when I was at the business summit Engage! During one our exercises, we were asked to pair up, to become “brilliant partners” , a like minded person who is going to hold you accountable for your dreams. Juli and I are that, I have a new business idea, I run it by her, she wants advise how to juggle 2 kids and a business, I help her. We don’t talk everyday, but when we do, it is like we just left off where we are supposed to be, “brilliant partners”. Business advice: get a brilliant partner ASAP, it will change you for the better!
Juli and I reconnected on the beach in Grand Cayman, yet again for Engage! As any friends that are parents, we talk about our kids. I say oh, “A’s birthday is coming up, what are you going to do?” As most Mom’s who are NOT party planners, she looks at me and says, ” Um,not sure, have not really thought about it, but I really should, she deserves it, what do you think?” So here become’s the Cupcake Party! a conversation on the beach, that led to the most ADORABLE Cupcake Party. Fun activities, great presentation, and happy kids. What a kid’s party should be

This past Christmas (I know almost 3 months ago) I hosted dinner. My daughter Ellie (5) chose the fabric and I made the table around that. We went robin egg blue with a bit of gold sequin, who doesn’t like a little glitter in their life? Here is some inspiration that could be used for a winter dinner party.
