Cupcakes and Lollipops - Sarah's 9th Birthday

I loved being asked by friends to help make their own children's birthdays extra special. Yesterday afternoon I had the pleasure of setting up a Cupcakes and Lollipops 9th Birthday for Sarah.

Here are some of the images from this special celebration. There is nothing more gratifying than hearing the guests whisper to the birthday girl "This is the best birthday party ever" and seeing the biggest grin on the birthday girls face.

Dinner on the lawn

This past weekend we celebrated the spring/summer season with a delightful dinner with friends on the lawn.

The menu was delicious and the bubbles flowed freely. I may have had a slight dull ache in my head yesterday!

I had to use peonies on the table as they are only available for four weeks of the year.

These beautiful pink etched votives I found at Jessie Lauren. They are having a sale at the moment too, so pop on over and have a browse.
