Our family just returned from a trip out to California to celebrate my nephew’s first birthday. Like Baby Pizza, he also had a traditional Korean first birthday celebration, also known as a dol. My sister decided to go with a modern tropical themed party. She hired party decorator, Yoonie, who she collaborated her ideas with to […]

I have two friends who threw a joint “Kidchella” themed party for their 2-year-old daughters. It was one of the cutest and most brilliantly done parties.

With large families on both sides and friends who are like family to […]

Since our two kiddos have birthdays that are only 2 weeks apart, we plan to organize joint parties for them, at least for the next few years. This year Little Lion has really enjoyed the book The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and I thought that seemed like a perfect theme for a birthday party! We have rented […]
