Party Planner.

I love to entertain.  So it's no surprise that when it's time for The Bug's birthday each October, I go a little nutty.  Some say I turn in to a teeny tiny stage mom.  I've been talking about his birthday since mid-Summer and it's finally time to start implementing some of the ideas I have been collecting.  (Pinterest has kept me very occupied.)

This week, I will book the photographer (I always incorporate our annual family pictures with The Bug's birthday party.  I like to get great candid shots at an event where happy faces are guaranteed.) and order the invitations. 

While I am not quite ready to share my ideas for this year's party with you, I will happily pass along last year's Cowboy Party, complete with ponies.  (Much less expensive than you would think.)

I am very excited about this year's party and it makes me incredibly happy that The Bug is too.  Here's a clue:  it all centers around one of his most favorite activities and something we do every day.  Stay tuned...!
