\nAs many of you know, my baby girl turned five last month. For their birthdays, I let my kids pick the theme, then the rest is up to Momma. You can see her first four birthdays here.<\/a> Believe it or not, you can have a character party with style. This year, she chose a <\/span>Princess and the Frog<\/span><\/i> theme. I aimed for a whimsical, bayou-esque feel. Since Tiana is a chef (and so is E, might I add) I focused on the cooking element. You will see this theme repeated in the invitations, as well as the favors. <\/span><\/p>\n

A special thanks to my bestie, MJ, who slept over the night before the party to tie together loose ends. As usual, there were a lot more loose ends than I estimated… We were up until 1:30 am.. she arranged all of the flowers- and what an amazing job she did! I have the best friends in the world. A big fat kiss to all of you.. MWAH!<\/span><\/i><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
