Ladybug lady party

before the holidays, i came across the cutest invitation that lead me onto the theme for miss.O's big celebration party.......Ladybugs. not super original, but oh so very cute i must say. i love planning parties and decor and had the most fun with this one!! red, black, white and lime green oh my and some polka dots thrown in for fun. surprisingly, a while ago i had found olivia some clothes with smocked ladybugs, so once i decided on this theme, i saved them for her big day. The find of all finds was a super talented 16 year old girl who makes unreal cakes. It was the "icing on the cake" for the decor...see below. all in all, it was wonderful to be surrounded by all of our dear family(near and from far away) and friends on her special day....i can only hope she feels this loved for the rest of her bdays and more. thank you mom, aunt joan, maren and a few special others for putting so much time and help into making it such a wonderful day and for offering up your help. miss o appreciates it so much!! all i can say to you aunt joan....never forget scallops, hehe

miss o all cleaned up at the ending of her party (outfit #2, my girl of course had more than one thing to wear...like the oscars for her, haha)
