5 Friday Finds

Hope everyone had a great week. Mine was busy with studying for my exiting exams. I did, however, find time to go to a knit class and a yarn tasting! That was fun.

Well, here are 5 things that I found in cyberland this week that I though you'd enjoy!

We Had A Party

This little girl turned one yesterday! If you don't know already ;) this is my niece, Bella! We had her party at our house, and had such a good time with family.

We went with a girly vintage theme, with pink, pearls, flowers and lace abounding everywhere. So naturally this is what her cake looked like...

The table was very pretty, with lots of yummy food. We had chocolate covered strawberries, cherry gelatin salad, grapes, nectarines, cheese, meat, crackers and spinach artichoke dip.

Everyone ate off of my vintage plate collection.

And we had flowers in a lovely pitcher.

Everyone drank out of ball jars with striped straws.

We also had a candy table for the party favors.

There were lots of pretty little shabby chic details...

...and a little girl with a ruffled hiney.

And she smashed her cake!

New Year Blogging Party

I'm linking up over at the New Year Blogging Party, hosted by The Crowley Party, Casey Leigh, and Changing Lanes.

We signed up and got paired up with someone to get to know and send a little care package to! Now we're all posting what received, and a little about the person who sent it to us...

I was paired up with Desiree from Mama and Her Boys, who sent me this precious

It's so sweet and dainty, and I love it! I've worn it so much already.

The name of Desiree's blog fits her well as she has two little boys that keep her busy. She likes to have fun with her family on the weekends finding lots to do in their town of San Francisco. They mostly like to find new eating places, as well as go to parks and the zoo! Desiree also likes to cook as her hobby (I sent her a new cookbook!) and enjoys blogging to share her experiences as a wife/momma/student!

Go visit her at her blog, she's lovely!!
