First Communion season is nearing! For us, preparations start at the beginning of the second grade school year, and religious education classes go through late April, so the build-up is long and the kids are excited and a little nervous.

OK, that may be an understatement. Since his last birthday, The Children’s Museum of Mississippi has opened. There’s a retro rocket right… Read More
My friend and party planning partner, Lauren, and her family have welcomed a new baby boy! We are hosting a Sip ‘n See Shower for them next weekend. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this kind of shower, it’s a get-together after the baby arrives, sometimes at the mother’s home, sometimes not. Presumably,… Read More
Lauren and I recently gave our friend Sarah a little inspiration for her son’s first birthday. Her youngest boy, Caleb, just turned one, and mama had a sweet and simple clutter cutting celebration on the brain. Sarah introduced us to the Milk + Bookies Birthday Party, a concept that has party goers bring new books… Read More
