It still is really nice but the girls wanted to make another one that is more BIG GIRL. I guess “big girl” means sequins, black and hot pink. Celebration Wreath Supplies: Wreath […]

Tuesday, March 15th, 2011 in About Me, Parties, party time

Abby had her birthday party last night at Color Me Mine with very limited friends: cousins +1! Of course, cakes and cupcakes were made by That’s My Cake. Color Me Mine left me feeling a little jipped when I left. If I had more energy I know I could have done a “Color Me Mine” […]
