Zoe's Mulan Party
The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all.
I am not going to lie, I LOVE that my daughter's new favorite princess is Mulan. Finally a princess that fights for her dreams and for what she believes in (training and working hard, instead of it looking easy or freely given); Plus she can defend herself which is AWESOME! For this party I tried to stay as authentic as I could with the movie and with the Chinese culture. Of course I had to add my own personal twist on everything to make it my own, which also had with it the occasional bump in the road. But I worked through all of them and am very happy with how everything turned out. I am so honored to still be able to throw parties like these for my kids, but most of all the greatest honor is having Aden and Zoe in my life. ENJOY!
DECORATIONS: For the decorations I created a Cherry Blossom tree using crepe paper and tissue paper; it was a long process but I love the end result.
DESSERT TABLE: For the desserts we had Fortune Cookies, cake, Chinese Candy, Candy Sushi, Mulan's Hair Comb Sugar Cookies.
FOOD AND DRINKS: For food we served Steamed Dumplings, Chinese Lettuce Wraps, and Egg Rolls.... YUM! and for drinks I bought a few really COOL Chinese sodas; Would of brought enough for everyone but they were expensive. What made them so cool is you had to hit the top pretty hard to drop a marble into the glass bottle to make the drink carbonated. Also food was served in take out boxes or on plates..... and yes of course we had chopsticks :)
PARTY FAVORS AND GAMES: All of the party favors were given in Take Out Boxes that were all written on in Chinese Characters and English (Took forever but FUN). Inside was Chinese Bead Bracelets, Chinese Noise Maker, Mini Fan, Chinese Finger Traps, and Chinese Yo-Yo's. We also had a few foam Ninja Swords and Chinese straw hats. For games we had Origami and a Dragon Pinata.
"My, my, what beautiful blossoms we have this year. But look, this one's late! I bet when it blooms, it will be most beautiful of all"
I Couldn't agree more!

Estrada Going Away Party
Colorful Colorado is a place of pure beauty and place that keeps you in a constant awe of God's creation; A place that has always been home in my heart. So it's hard to imagine that anyone would want to leave this place. Which brings me to the latest party I threw for our family who decided to move back to their home in NC. We will miss them terribly but understand they must do what's best for them and their family. So with a heavy heart I share with you a party that was filled with love, laughter and many tears. Enjoy!
Dessert Table: Our Dessert table had a mountain cake surrounded by a cupcake forest, Colorado themed sugar cookies and candies. Which we named Moose Poop (chocolate covered nuts) and Colorado Snowballs (yogurt covered malt balls).
Decorations: For decorations we kept it pretty simple considering I only had a week to prepare. I made a Colorado flag and Colorado map banner. Then I strung up the phrase Bon Voyage over the Huge Colorado Flag. Finally I went out back and picked up some pine tree branches and pine cones and placed them around the table.
Food and Drinks: Again we kept it simple just had a normal BBQ and soda for drinks. But if you know me by now I had to have some food that went with the theme so a Colorado party wouldn't be authentic without Rocky Mountain Oysters and Deer Sausage. The Rocky Mountain Oysters was the funniest part for me.... First telling the guest they were fried pickles so they would try them then with a smirk revealing to them that they were actually chewing on cow balls. LOL!
Well that's it! Thank you again for viewing my page and loving parties as much as I do. Stay tuned for my daughter's 4th birthday party :)

Aden's Phineas and Ferb Party
"I know what we are going to do today! ... Hey, Where's Perry?"
My son has loved this show for awhile now and I must admit I love it too. Honestly I never thought I would love any cartoon that wasn't from the 80's but Disney has proven me wrong over and over again with their cartoon series Phineas and Ferb. So when my son's 5th birthday was approaching their was no question what his theme would be. Below are some of the pictures from his party. Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed putting it together for my amazing son!
DECORATIONS
We had Agent P flying in on his parachute, Phineas and Ferb themed Standees and Phineas and Ferb Mylar Balloons.
Desserts
We had Perry The Platypus Mini Cakes, Phineas and Ferb Cake Push Pops, Perry's Hat Marshmallow Cookie Pops, Chocolate Foil Balls, And Beautiful Cookies and Cake Made by Etsy and Cake Crumbs Bakery.
Food and Beverages
Food and beverages was really fun for this party. As you will see all of the food was created from Phineas and Ferb episodes! We had Mr. Slushy Dawg and Slushy Burger Stand; Sadly Jeremy was not working that day :) We also had Phineas and Ferb Jell-O Jigglers (from the Day of the Living Gelatin episode) , A Perry The Platypus Watermelon (from the episode where they help Baljeet win the biggest watermelon competition) , and Snow Cones (from the S'Winter episode). Our beverage of choice had to be the famous P & F Lemonade (form the Lemonade stand episode).
Party Favors and Activities
For Party Favors we had Agent P Hats and goodie bags filled with things are secret agents would need; such as Binoculars, Hand Cuffs, a Magnifying Glass, Perry The Platypus Noise Makers, and Agent P Lollipops. For our activities we went to Jump Street (from the Jumping Castle episode) and last but not least, we had a Evil Dr. Doofenshmirtz Pinata to beat up! (made by Etsy)
Thank you for taking the time to view my blog and my business, Festive Enchantments.
Goodbye from Phineas and Ferb :)
