HOLY COW – Stevie is TWO!

HOLY COW – Stevie is TWO!

One of my favorite parts of Motherhood has been getting to throw epic birthday parties for my girls. I have a blast doing the event design, and I totally “get a high” off the satisfaction of seeing how it all comes together. The best part is that I’ve worked with some incredible vendors over the years, which I can pass on to all of YOU! Stevie’s Barnyard Bash was no exception. When my tiniest babe decided to grow up and turn two, I got to work thinking about what I wanted to do. I decided on a “Holy Cow!” farm theme, and it turned out seriously cute! Read on for all the details and photos from this event to inspire your next kid-friendly soiree!

I chose the Masonite Performance Door System to give the exterior of our house a facelift, and it’s been so much fun partnering with them.

Indie’s Enchanted FOURest Photoshoot by The Deerwood Co!

You all know I LOVE a strong, cohesive theme and for every birthday Indie has had, I have incorporated the party theme into her formal portraits! I don’t know how much longer I’ll do this… do people do formal photoshoots for birthdays beyond age 5? I barely know anyone who does them past the first year! But here we are…. four years in, and I’m going strong – because I cannot deny that I’m extra.
