SpongeBob SquarePants Birthday Party Theme
This week, we celebrated my daughter’s 8th birthday with a SpongeBob SquarePants party theme! My kids are big SpongeBob fans. It all started with my oldest, who is now 16 – if you can believe it! She adored the cartoon growing up, so for her 3rd birthday I made her a SpongeBob cake. Little did I know then, but that would be the start of many themed dinners.

Her SpongeBob birthday party featured DIY decorations, party games, and food and…

Star Wars Birthday Party
Our little Star Wars fan turned three, and we celebrated with a galactic birthday party! Watching our son meet Darth Vader at Walt Disney World inspired this Star Wars birthday party theme. Seeing him interact with the intimidating Sith lord and channel his own little dark side had me absolutely beaming. It’s my favorite memory from our trip! Due to much encouragement from me, Ezra has grown into a big fan of Darth Vader and the Galactic Empire. Don’t get me wrong, he loves the good guys too! But there’s just something so awesome about the bad guys of Star Wars, so that was the focus for his birthday party.…

Earth Day is a time to celebrate the beauty of our planet and learn how to protect it. And this week, I’m sharing ways you can celebrate Earth Day as a family!
