Happy Birthday Mom!

Today I had the honor of throwing a party for the person that threw every single one of my birthday parties growing up- my mother. With the party guests in aprons, for the retro 50's theme, the love and conversation was continual as good friends gathered around to celebrate the woman that puts others first. I am so thankful for everything she has done and continues to do for me. I hope today she realized just how special I think she really is. I love you, mom and it was my pleasure to have you in my home for your birthday.

My mom and I had made a wonderful memory by making raspberry jam together to give as party favors to each guest.

What a great birthday party you threw for your mother! She certainly deserved having a beautiful day! And Ella looked like she was just right at home with all the partying--she is a partying girl! Loves to get dressed up and loves to have fun! Tell your mom "Happy Birthday" from us!

what a fun party! I absolutely love the picture of you and your mom where she is holding your sweet little man. I love that he is just watching you. So sweet.

Hi, you don't know me. I'm a friend of Heidi's. I've stocked your blog before, but it's been a long time.

I'm 90% sure that your mom was my second grade teacher. Could that be possible? I took 2nd grade at Shelly Elementary.

All the details of your party are stunning! So pretty, I'm sure she felt so special.
