So good to be reunited again! 

Our good old friends came to visit from out of town today!

Guests have arrived!

Shane also got a playdate.

While they are out, I prepared hot chocolate & dessert plates for the cake.

Birthday cake!

Surprise!

LOVED the girls’ reactions when I cut the cake. Totally made my 9 hrs of labor making the cake sooooo worth it!

Came out better than I thought!

Let the good times continue~

We extended the party until 8pm because they were having so much fun. We ended the night with Home Alone 3.
WHAT A FUN DAY.

I prepared brunch for the guests.

Blueberry croissant puff

Spinach & Ham Cheese Puffs

Pear walnut ricotta crostini

Birthday girl!

I got to together with my my ex-coworkers for holiday lunch today. Miss these girls so much! XO

For the last few weeks, my friend and I have been busy planning and decorating for our church, getting ready for the Advent season.

We made 6 big wreaths with help of lovely ladies who volunteered to help.

We strung lights to the wreaths and hang them from the ceiling.

I got to hang them using a riser from the top of the ceiling. It was wild, fun and scary to be so high up there. What an experience.

After dinner we came to experience a breathtaking display of more than 7,000 illuminated jack o’ lanterns—all designed and hand-carved on site by the team of artisans. Amazing!

We are out with our friends tonight in upstate NY for a fun event.

I’m so glad that my friend asked me if I wanted to take a cake decorating class. It was so much fun! @The Art of Cake Studio

Why do we look so serious and stiff? Haha, we rushed to get out the door after getting the kids home from different activities. Off to AWCA Gala, but can’t forget to take a picture!

Supported a good cause and enjoyed the night out with my hubby. 😉
