My Party At Hostess With The Mostess...

A few months ago, I posted Nyomi's Sesame Street party over at "Hostess with the Mostess"...

And just earlier today??!!! I am very delighted to see it on the front page as one of the inspired events!

 

There are so many great themed parties out there that of course, it feels great to see your party was appreciated and that it is picked amongst so many other wonderful parties! And I must say, this has helped promote my online business, Party Prints & Pieces!

Thank you for making me happy today, HWTM! :)

Nyomi's 2nd Birthday Party...

If you happened to have read my previous posts, then you'd know that my little angel, Nyomi Anne, had just turned 2 the past Tuesday, the 24th, and had her birthday party the past Saturday, the 28th.

Before I continue though, I wanted to first share a picture of her actual party invitation card since the last one I posted on here was an e-invite image.

Anyway, the card says it all... The party was a Sesame Street inspired party...

In the hopes for at least a cloudy day, we still went ahead and decorated and set up the front and backyard...

But as expected, it sure wasn't a sunny day that swept the clouds away! LOL! The sun only came out for a bit and then mostly rain and it was really cold. So we had to move a lot of stuffs back in the house. And even though I've been stressing about the weather, thinking that it's gonna be too crowded inside the house... It actually wasn't so bad and we all had a great time!

Here's her Sweet Table that had to be set up at the garage LOL!!!

Remember my vent about the cake? LOL... Well, I still wish it had been done... I still wish the cake designer did not back out on me like that. But I'm glad that I found a not-so-bad one at Wal-Mart! LOL! I have to get two separate cakes though to make it a two-tiered cake myself because if you ask for a two tier cake made, they consider it as a wedding cake and it costs a whole lot LOL!!! Weird and stupid but oh well... I found something ok so I'm not gonna throw a fit.

Ahhh the sesame street cupcakes... simply made out of colored icings, candy melts, peanut m&ms, oreos, chips ahoy and bugles chips! LOL!!!!!

Here's the lamp post that Noel made and the backdrop. I got this image from Aaron over at flickr, with permission to edit and use of course. I am also planning to sell the backdrop too but I have to go to the post office to check the shipping prices before I do. So if you're having a sesame street party in the future... let me know! I will definitely set up my etsy soon ;)

And yay! The happy birthday girl! She really had a blast! And I'm glad she did!!! Everything paid off! And thanks to those who came and joined the fun! If you're wondering where are the pictures of the food... uh... LOL... I didn't get to take much shot of it... a lot of our friends came early so as soon as the dish is ready... serve! LOL!

Now before I sign off... And aside from my family that helped made this party happened, there are certain friends and vendors that I want to give credit to...

2. Hanna Boyle (Nyomi's Godmother) - For the large street signs and the backdrop.

3. Shop Sweet Lulu - For the pretty packaging supplies

Party Preparation...

Yes... I have been slacking off and sorry for not blogging for quite a while.

Anyhoo, my daughter, Nyomi, is turning 2 this coming Tuesday (how time flies) and she's having a sesame street inspired party the coming Saturday. It is gonna be so much fun but with that said... we're pretty occupied preparing for that as well as for her actual birth day. :)

I promise I'll blog all about the upcoming events! As for now, if you haven't seen it... check out her invitation I designed for her. :)
