Party Planner

Who knew that a 1-year-old’s birthday party could be so exhausting. Especially when the party isn’t until Saturday! I’ve spent the last few days cleaning and scrubbing and locating napkins with tiki houses on them and purchasing those little umbrellas to go in drinks. The stupid thing is that even though I feel like I’m adding all of these cool touches to this little party, I’m sure no one will even notice nor care. But it’s addicting! You get an idea and you’re like, “ooohhh, that would be so cute!” But really, it’s not that cute. And way too much work.

Sacrifices must be made. Sorry, Lucy. No giant flower cake for you. How about a cupcake with a candle on it? Or maybe just a deep fried twinkie?
