Kassie's "Mall Scavenger Hunt Birthday Party"










As it happens every year, Kassie starts planning her birthday party for the following year, on the day after her birthday party. Last year was no different, except for the fact that I was in the middle of opening up a store. I unfortunalely had no patience to listen to her talk about themes for something that was a year away. And she did as my sweet little girl does, she stopped talking about it. So what happened? I almost forgot : ( With that said, we had to scramble to come up with a theme and invitations. As many of you know, I love to hand make invitations for every occasion. I did make some, but I was not happy with them at all. Kassie decided she wanted to have a scavenger hunt at Chandler Fashion Center. It actually was a lot of fun. We broke the kids up into 3 teams. Black, Pink and Orange teams. Each team had a different list to work off of and money to spend. They had a blast. We ended the party with dinner and cake at California Pizza Kitchen. Kassie had a few girls spend the night, mostly all the girls that had dance rehearsals the next morning. All in all, it was a great party, even without the 12 month planning : ) The one good thing that came from this is that Kassie has not mentioned her party for next year. She might have started to think like me, save everything untill the LAST MINUTE...oh no!

I'm trying to plan a scavenger hunt at Chandler Mall and would LOVE the details if you're willing to share!

It's a lot harder to think of challenges than I thought it would be!

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

My life through my iPhone 2

Part II of "My life through my iPhone.                    Saturday was the Marcos De Niza Homecoming!  Kassie and Aaron had a blast!  I was able to finish Kassie's ballroom shoes on Sunday. It was spirit week for Corona del Sol and on Monday it was TV character day.  She dressed as Blaire Waldorf from Gossip Girl.  Corona had a bon fire on Thursday, and the Pommies performed a hip hop routine.  Here is a picture I stole from Instagram. On Saturday evening, the kids decided to carve pumpkins.  Here is Nachito and Chanel getting ready to carve. Kassie and her friend Amanda did some carving too!  These may not be great posts, but it's a start. 

Blog Remodel

I am also looking forward to my Blog Remodel. Danielle over at The Design Girl is re-doing my blog. I can't wait to see it. I looked at a lot of Blog designers, and her site was definetly my favorite. If you are interested in customizing your blog, I highly suggest her. I have been on her waiting list for a few weeks now, and I have watched as my name moves closer to the top. And just this weekend, I got to pick my new kit. And, I also changed the name of my Blog. I have been really trying to come up with something that is more "Me". And I am really happy with my choice. Hopefully it will be up and running soon. Keep checking back to see my new blog.
