So we’ve had several summer parties and one of the first one’s was mi madre’s 60th bday party!
We had a Mexican Fiesta themed soiree and it was wonderful!
Photobooth fun!

Paper cut lanterns everywhere

A creepy ladybug pinata (seriously the pinata selection was not great) 🙂
A bunch of amazing food and Mexican desserts completed a wonderful party- wish I had taken more photos
we had fun celebrating!
Next up came a friends bridal shower
Favors for the attendees
pretty decor
yummy food
a good time had by all!
and then I threw a Little Italy themed engagement shower for another friend with some other girls
Here is the link to the pinterest board in case anyone ever throws a Little Italy themed party!

My sister helped me make the mustache straws by cutting them out on the Silhouette
Food was yummy- got the Italy napkins and black and white striped straws from Amazon
Love my Etsy find pics of Italy
