Party anyone???

Can I just say how much I enjoy entertaining...I have always loved to put parties together, or plan small gatherings. And now, something must be in the air, because I am dying to plan another get together. I just need to come up with a reason. Can someone help me with that? Someone must be having a molar pulled or some kind of something that merits a gathering. I'm open to suggestions.

Or......maybe it's because the other day while blog hopping I came across this blog. It is an entertainers heaven. I have just gone through a few pages and I am in awe of all the great entertaining ideas. It has decorating ideas, recipes, products, birthday party themes, baby shower themes. Please, visit this blog, you will absolutely love it! It will make you want to throw your mail man a party, I swear. Don't say I didn't warn you.

And, since I did happen to entertain over the weekend for my sons Communion. I made some very simple Pomegranate martinis, and I have had four requests for the recipe. Well, I feel silly, because really, they are so easy. They were not very special. I didn't even rim the martini glasses with sugar, and I have lost sleep about that, let me tell you. And I also forgot to yank an actual pomegranate from my backyard so that I can garnish them with. I know, I know, what kind of entertainer am I anyways? I can say this, even though they didn't have sugar rimmed glasses or pieces of pomegranate floating in them, they were very, very good. So here is the simple, but delicious recipe for them. And please, by all means make me look bad and rim those glasses and add some pomegranate pieces to them. I can say this, the other thing that made them so good was the gorgeous martini glasses that I served them in. I have attached a picture. They were gifted to me and unfortunately they are sold out. Here is a link to them, you can try and see if they come in again. Go to Sur La Table, they might get some more.

Two parts pomegranite mix, I bought this one at BevMo.
One part vodka


Mix with ice, serve, and enjoy!

Hey, thanks for the great recipe. I am going to try making it today. Do you have any recipe that adds acai juice?

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. 

Just how long has it been? A long, long time....

Not so much of a Blogaholic. I almost feel the need to change the name of my poor little blog. It has sat here deserted with no updates and no pictures. I think about it everyday, yet I can't seem to find the time to come back to it. My intention for my blog was to document so much of our days and lives. And yet, I have let months go by without one little entry. There is no way my mind can remember everything that has happened since my last post. So much missed. The majority of Kai's 8th grade year, and the majority of Nachito's 5th grade year. Not to mention how many holidays and important events I have missed. Trips and of course Birthday parties. Somehow I need to find the time to record these events, and even if I have to back date them, I will document them at some point. This week is a tough school week for the kids. AIMS testing for both of them. Today they both felt very good about how they did. Nothing much has changed in Kai's world. She still dances, still c...
