prettiest party ever

it's early and before easter weekend festivities begin,
i wanted to share a link to the prettiest little girls party
i have ever seen - srsly EVER!

penn paper flowers




















now jessica of pen n paper flowers is queen Party Girl.
i don't mean the type of girl that likes to go out clubbing all night long.
i mean the party girl that dreams, designs, coordinates, and styles
amazing celebrations. it's her passion.

this lady isn't just creative in her designs and styling,
she also bakes like no body's business, guest blogs for famous
hostess with the mostess and has a patented-pending product,
called the pastry pedestal that she is selling all over the world.
she could go head to head with martha stewart and hold her own.
the woman is this tremendously talented.

i think about all the work that we goes into the boys' birthdays.
and though we strive for simple, they still require a good amount of work
and leave us exhausted. two parties a year and we're done.
it's hard to imagine the amount of passion she has to do it all year long.

so i was visiting jess' blog to see if she was embarking on another
promise me journey for this year, and i got sidetracked when i came
across her pocket full of posies party post.

this is the party she styled for her 3 year old daughter ella's birthday.
Oh. My. Goodness!!  i was picking my jaw off the floor.
it's truly the prettiest party i've EVER seen.

beautiful, simple and vintage are 3 words that come to mind.
it's not over the top or too matchy matchy with paper products,
everything seems perfectly balanced.
i have no doubt this little party will be posted and re-posted
all over the party blogging world...and maybe even beyond.

and as for the promise me list that i originally was looking for.
i never did find a post on her blog for 2012,
but i've decided to do it again this year even if jess doesn't
officially lead it.  i'll gather up some friends who participated
last year and we can cheer each other along as we check things off.

~ Easter is just around the corner!!
i found these adorable cupcakes on-line using peeps as toppers.
i baked cupcakes last night with the boys and thought it would be
fun to do but

the boys wanted nothing to do with peeps.
they don't like 'em...at all.
they will eat plain marshmallows. *sigh*

so
colored frosting and sprinkles will be as fancy we can go.
