a neighborhood that booed each other, so I was beyond thrilled when
we opened the front door of our new home one October morning to discover a

was a note instructing us to place a "We've Been Booed" sign in our
front window (so as to alert the other neighbors that we had already been
booed) and to pack up our own basket of goodies along with a copy of the sign
and deliver them secretly to another neighbor who hadn't been booed yet.</span></b></span></div>

In the beginning of the summer, I had the girls booked in camps, events, programs everyday. But as the days started, I realized that all I really wanted to do was spend time with my girls. The twins, Preslee and Mason are starting kindergarten this year and my youngest, Finley will be in half day pre-school, 3/days a week. This is all new to me, my kids being gone all day for school. The whole experience is bittersweet. For the first time in 5 1/2 years, I am going to have a few hours a day, all.by.myself.....I know I will find tons to do, but I am so going to miss my girls. Their squeals, giggles, playing princess, shopping, the mid-day cuddles on the sofa. Do you think their teachers would mind if I popped in for a mid-day hug if I miss them too much?<br />
<br />
Last year, we hosted a Back to School Bash for the girls and all their friends as a kick off to preschool. This year, I have to admit, time has gotten away from me. So, when we get back from the beach, I am going to have their favorite type of party, a tea party. We are having a back to school tea party. Complete with all their favorites, chocolate cake, cold milk and strawberries. I have planned a fun scavenger hunt for all of their school supplies and their adorable personalized lunch boxes! Stay tuned for pics!<br />
<br />
But in the mean time, as we are all planning on getting our kids back to school, here is a FREE printable for all my awesome fans! Thanks so much for supporting Cupcakes and Lemonade. We have had an awesome start to 2012 and I am looking forward to sharing lots of fun designs with you!<br />
<br />
Just click, print, cut and pack a fun little message to your sweeties!<br />

It has extra special meaning this year because it's Preslee and Mason's first year of kindergarten. So many of their little friends are going to be taking the big step to elementary school and I want to do something special to celebrate them. In the mean time, enjoy some pics of our bash last year. The kids had such a great time!<br />

It's so much fun to see just how creative they can be with the party goods that I design for them. Several months ago, I had the pleasure of working with such a fun Mommy who loves throwing amazing parties as much as I do. It was her adorable daughter Avery's first birthday and she wanted the party to be just as cute as Avery is. <br />

She sent out our Lemonade Stand invite to set the tone for the party. We decided to add glitter to the lemons and the flowers across the top of the stand for that extra pop! While Kim worked on building the cutest lemonade stand for Avery, I designed a custom banner, favor tags, stickers, a smash cake topper and high chair banner. <br />

She had seen the girls <a href="http://shopcupcakesandlemonade.blogspot.com/search/label/cowgirl" target="_blank">Shabby Chic Cowgirl Party</a> and after squealing at all the sweet compliments she had about the party, I was able to finish reading her email. She asked me if I was interested in becoming part of the creative team behind Cool Progeny. <br />
<br />
For those of you who don't know, <a href="http://coolprogeny.com/" target="_blank">Cool Progeny</a> is the most amazing site for local families in and around the Baltimore/Washington area. Heather and the team write about everything from parenting tips, fun things to do in our area with your kiddos to parties, crafts, baking, etc. The blog is one you must check out!<br />
<br />
I, of course, was so excited to join this creative team of ladies and have since been writing about crafts, and anything and everything party. With that said, we just launched our Ultimate Birthday Guide. If you are planning a birthday party anytime soon, you must check out this guide. It's amazing! What to wear, where to host the party, styling ideas (look for Cupcakes and Lemonade), local vendors, favor and decoration ideas, gift giving ideas and SO MUCH MORE! It's a compiled list of the "best of the best" in and around Baltimore and every vendor/venue has been tried and tested by members of our "Cool Team." <br />

<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
My girls think of their Daddy as their prince, their Super Hero. It was only fitting that we make him the perfect Super Hero gift for Father's Day. So, we made a quick trip to Target gathered some of his favorite treats and put together our very own box of supplies from the<u> Super Hero Supply Company</u>. With lots of inspiration from Pinterest, I designed some super cute labels and below you will find a link to download everything you need to put together your very own care package. All you need to do is print, grab a pair of scissors and some glue and you are all set.</div>

I am FINALLY getting around to posting pics of our Super Fun Summer Party last year. 6 kiddos with Winter Birthdays=a reason to have a party! WARNING! LOTS OF PICS!<br /><br />for those of you who know me, you know i love to throw parties. i could find a reason or occasion to have a party everyday, but i am SURE that drew wouldn't approve so, i won't even go there. our next door neighbors have three boys and we have three girls, all the same ages. we often jokingly call ourselves the <span style="font-weight: bold;">"brady bunch".</span><br /><br />all 6 kids have winter birthdays. we have joked that we are "so envious" of all the fun summer birthday parties we see online and wish we could just have a popsicle eating, pool party, slip n slide kind of party for our 6 in the backyard. so the half birthday idea was born!<br /><br />we set the tone for the party with this invitation that i designed.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCAoNNTl1a6VkoH-G617oj1aEeDo14XmUT94Wjswq5ggRgJb0r7ASXGPjznbB3Jw6-JBfzaKfaxNqn4GCb-hGCbaiMATE9UZrk-8yrLP5yCbFPWtmb66DngVibsd7PCO0__AocvsDfLcnY/s1600/Slide1.jpg" style="color: #666666;

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love making memories for my kids. I have so many fond memories of little things my parents did for my sister and I growing up. Those are the things that make childhood so special. Those, "I remember my mom always did this" moments. So, this year, after TOTAL inspiration from Jessica, at <a href="http://www.littlepumpkingrace.com/" target="_blank">Little Pumpkin </a>Grace, I decided we had to have our First Annual Countdown to Christmas Breakfast. We did it the day after Thanksgiving and it was a fun way to bring out Apple, our Elf on the Shelf. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We had powdered donuts and hot cocoa with "snowballs". The kids were in heaven.

I feel like this year was the fastest Christmas ever! Every year, we host two big parties, our kids Christmas party and the girls birthday party in January. I look forward to these two parties all year long. They are so much fun to plan and even more fun to attend. <br />
<br />
Last year we did a <a href="http://shopcupcakesandlemonade.blogspot.com/2010/12/our-first-annual-crafty-kids-christmas.html" target="_blank">Crafty Christmas Party</a> with lots of fun Christmas Crafts for the kids so this year, I decided to switch it up some and do a Breakfast with Santa. The kids all came in PJ's and Santa was with us all morning. <br />
<br />

From Halloween to NYE was such a whirlwind with Cupcakes and Lemonade, family stuff and the girls. At 5, 5 and 3, their social calendar is already so full. I can't imagine what it will be like when they are teenagers! <br />
<br />
We had so many things going on for Halloween, but I still wanted to do a little something, just us girls at home. My parents were visiting and it was the perfect time to have our Happy Halloween Breakfast. I had so much fun putting the table together. For decorations, I just pulled from my Halloween stash and mostly used things I had around the house. <br />
<br />

Thanks so much to all of my wonderful customers who have kept me up late night and up early the next morning. I LOVE it!<br />
<br />
I had so many fun events and parties to post about over the holidays and just never seemed to find the time to post about any of them. I am going to try to play catch up, so bare with me. I know Valentines has just passed, but I have Halloween, Christmas and lots of amazing customer parties to share!<br />
<br />
Back in November, I hosted a shower for my SIL and her new baby boy. Zachary was born in January and is OH SO CUTE! We chose to do the Little Man theme and now that I have seen his sweet face, he is definitely a "little man."<br />

Zachary's nursery has plaids, blues and reds so, that gave me the inspiration for the design for the invitation and all the party printables. We had so many yummy desserts and lots of fun celebrating the arrival of this little man. The full collection is listed in my shop now!<br />
<br />
And right before Christmas, my good friend's sweet little boy turned one. It was quite the celebration! His mommy loves to plan parties just as much as I do. We had so much fun working on this one. <br />

We did a banner with monthly pictures of Aiden to show how much he has grown.<br />
To keep the kiddos busy, there was a balloon artist. They were just amazed!<br />

It was the combined effort of some amazing vendors that made our party so awesome! Some people are SUPER crafty and can make and do everything. Me, not so much. Love the designing and styling aspect, but I don't sew, not even replace a button sew. I do not love to bake and my family would prefer I don't either. Cooking good, baking, not so much! With that being said, I wanted to do a more detailed post and a thank you to all the amazing vendors who helped to make the girls <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Wild West</span></b> <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Hoe-Down</span></b> successful. I don't think the list at the end of my <a href="http://shopcupcakesandlemonade.blogspot.com/2012/01/wild-west-hoe-down.html" target="_blank">party post</a> is enough. So here goes..........<br />

She made the adorable cookies last year for the girls <a href="http://shopcupcakesandlemonade.blogspot.com/2011/01/vintage-circus-birthday-party.html" target="_blank">Vintage Circus Party</a> and when we started planning this year, I knew that she had to make them for this party. Her cookies are gorgeous, seriously, like works of art. And they are so tasty too! She is a dream to work with. I just sent her the theme and colors and she came up with the most beautiful cookies. There were only two left after the party. Everyone loved them!<br />

Again, I gave her the colors and the theme and she ran with it. They matched perfectly to the skirts my mom made! The detail and quality is amazing! If you need a cute birthday shirt or just a fun tee for your kiddos, make sure you check out her Etsy site! I wish I had gotten a pic of the backs of the shirt. The cutest little heart, such a fun extra detail!<br />

She has the cutest patterns in her shop and this year, I went with a paisley and a houndstooth (which I love) print. They were so pretty and sad to say, I only got one. There wasn't a single cookie left at the end of the party! BOO!

They are super talented, fun to be around and have this unique way of making every single child feel super special. That is Shari. I have had Shari come and do face painting now at three different parties and every time, even if it's the same kids, it's a unique experience. They love her! Her painting is gorgeous. My kids cry when we have to wash it off. Wouldn't be a party without her!<br />

Then when they asked for pony rides too, I got really scared. Their birthdays are all in January and it's freezing here and sometimes lots of snow. After an entire summer of research, I found Claddagh Manor. The minute I walked into the barn, I knew this was the perfect place for the party. It was impeccable, cleanest place I have ever been in. And heated too, big points for that! Denise, Pat and their entire staff went above and beyond making the party really special. All the extra touches were so appreciated. The kids had a blast riding and loved all the ponies. <br />

Kory is another one of those people, that I LOVE working with. We clicked from the minute we met. She gets me! Comes right in and starts taking pics. At the end of the day, she has every shot that I could ever want and more. She is so great with kids. Somehow, she gets my girls to do exactly what she wants them to do. OK, (minus that one fit that Finley pitched during our family photos). She has photographed several parties for me and did our family pics back in the fall. If you are local to Baltimore and want some amazing pictures, check out her site. There were so many from this party, I am seriously having a hard time deciding which ones to print!<br />

It was his idea to have a hobby horse for each child to decorate and take home from the party. I was planning on making a trip to the Dollar Tree for the stuffed ones, but no way, my Dad would have never let that happen. He cut out and assembled 30 wooden hobby horses for the party. After the kids decorated them, he assembled the sticks. Don't forget about the leather ears too. It was so awesome watching how excited those kids were decorating their own horse. Lots of fun races with those horses! He loves his family so much and especially the grandkids. What a special thing for my girls to have to share with their friends. Thanks Daddy, I love you! <br />

I don't sew, don't like to sew, don't know how to sew. But my mom does. She made a lot of my clothes for my sister and I when we were younger and now makes clothes and doll clothes for my girls. When I sent my mom a picture of the tablecloth that I had to have for the party, she said, "Don't buy that, are you crazy? I can make it." Yards and yards of ruffles later, she showed up at my house with the most gorgeous tablecloth. It was perfect for our party. Girly, a little shabby chic, absolutely perfect! Not only did she make the tablecloth, she made bandana table runners for the rest of the tables and the girls twirl skirts. Everything was amazing Mom. Thank you for all you do for us. The girls love telling their friends, "My Mamaw made this."

I look forward to our two big parties every year, our kids Christmas party and the girls birthday party. Last year, they were obsessed with anything and everything circus, so we did the Vintage Circus Party. This year, it was cowgirls and horses. Mommy loves all things vintage, so, what other possible theme could we do but a <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">Shabby Chic Cowgirl Party</span>.<br />

The whole day was perfect! From the venue, the vendors, the kids, the entire day. And you want to know the best part? Celebrating another amazing year with my babies. It's hard to believe that they are 5, 5 and 3 already. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

The girls twirls skirts, the bandana table runners and the GORGEOUS ruffled tablecloth set the tone for the whole party. And Dad for making 30 hobby horses. It was a lot of work!

What is sweeter than all the classic stories we all grew up on?<br />
<br />
When Sarah asked me to design a "boyish nursery rhyme" themed invitation for her son Brayden's first birthday party, I couldn't wait to get started. We decided to focus the invitation on Hey Diddle Diddle. I added a touch of blue and green madras plaid to coordinate on all the party goods, just to give it that <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">LITTLE</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">BOY</span> touch.<br />

<br />
I recently had the opportunity to do the most adorable party for one of my dear friends that I have known since I was in elementary school. I LOVE doing parties for my girlfriends little girls. Especially since I can remember our parties when we were younger. Just to give you an idea, let's travel back a few years!<br />
That is me, second from the left and Tina third from the left! <br />
<br />
Tina's daughter Daphne, who is turning 8 years old, was having her birthday party at a local pet store and we decided to "glam" it up and do a Parisian Poodle theme! LOTS of pink and so pretty!<br />
<br />

After all, shouldn't grown ups have fun invites and party decor too? <br />
<div><br />
</div><div>A few months ago, my Uncle Mark turned 60 (He's actually my hubby's uncle, but that's just logistics) . It was only fitting that he have a big bash to celebrate! Mark and his wife Peggy are very special to me. All of my aunts and uncles live out of town and every since Drew and I met and I moved to Baltimore they have taken me under their wing. Over the years, we have become such good friends, I know I can always count on them. They <i>ADORE</i> my girls as much as my girls adore them!<br />
<br />
Mark is a huge Baltimore Orioles fan so that is the theme that we went with. I did the invites and the party decor and he and Peggy pulled from his collection of O's memorabilia to decorate their house for the party. Everything looked amazing and the party was so much fun!<br />

I have so many files of pics and just decided to bite the bullet and start sharing! <br />
<br />
Back in early summer, I premiered our newest collection, "Berry Sweet". <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;"><i>LOVE</i></span> this collection, so perfect for a girly, fun summer birthday party. Amanda from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/people/mandyannclothing">Mandy Ann's Clothing</a> was the first to use this collection for her daughter Brynlee's 6th birthday party. She did an amazing job putting everything together. It is just adorable! <br />

There is so much satisfaction in seeing the biggest smile on a child (or a grown-ups) face when they see what you have created for their party. <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">EVERYONE</span></i> deserves that extra special party and I love being a part of that! It is really super special when you can do that for a friend. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I have made a promise to myself to try and keep up, but life has been so busy. Between all the end of the year things for the little ones and so many fun new orders coming in, I have been swamped. Not complaining about the business, I LOVE that! And it really is so easy to update on Facebook. I have to write myself a note to remember to update over here too. So, I have had a bunch of new really fun designs. I love doing custom work and my customers have had such really great party ideas lately.
