Red Carpet Event(Or Maybe Pink)

Want to upgrade your event with a fabulous photo op complete with a Red Carpet(or maybe pink!)? Well check out Red Carpet Runway. I haven't used them as of yet, but I think this would be a great enhancement for any party; sweet sixteens, baby and bridal showers. You can also send them your own logo and have them print it on the backdrop. Plus the fact that you can choose from several colored carpets to include; Red, Black, Blue, Green, Lime Green, Off White, Pink, Purple, Orange, Tan, Yellow and Gray. This is sure to customize and upgrade your special event.

Where are you? Are you ok?

Over the last couple of weeks I have gotton several e-mails from my blogging buddies wondering if everything is ok with me since I haven't posted anything. I feel so loved. Thanks guys. April has been a very busy month for me personally. My son has me running in circles. He has such a social calendar at 4, who knew! Also, its audit season at my fulltime job. So there you have it. You won't even believe that I haven't even been to HomeGoods in over three weeks. I know, sad right. Everything should go back to "my normal" soon.

I have also been working on a new blog design in honor of my year blog anniversary and my 153 followers, yay! I can't wait to reveal it so stay tuned. In the meantime, don't forget to enter the invitation giveaway posted on the right hand corner of the blog ( yeah right over there).

Thanks again guys for you patience and understanding. I will return with some fabulous parties, great finds and all that has taken place with Enchanted Expectations!

Hugs & kisses!

Bailey's Easter Party

Well the day went fantastic! Bailey was so excited to see all of his friends come to his house. I kept the party very small. Only 8 kids and all between the ages of 18 months and 4. I wanted the kids to be able to find eggs and not get trampled on by bigger kids. It was perfect. All the kids were soooo cute!

Jessica at Party Box Design made me these great stickers and Cupcake Toppers. The colors were dead on and she was very fast and pleasant to work with. I just loved them!

Favors

Party Boy Bailey

Dessert Table(gotta have one of those its Easter and all about the sweets)

Loved the two sided paper that I found at Michael's. It was the perfect colors

Table setting

Though I had a fabulous table setting, I think everyone thought it was too nice to eat at so they ate outside. :-)

Centerpieces: Grass, butterfly and eggs from Michaels, Bucket from Target, and jumping rabbits from Pier One

Crafts: Kids made a Bunny Mask from Oriental Trading. These were a huge hit.

The Hunt for Eggs!

Princess and the Frog

Though I'm not a big fan of Character parties, I think this party went great. Not much Princess and the Frog, but I used the colors as inspiration. The kids were very happy!

Birthday Girl

Below are pictures of the table setting. The kids loved their crown, tiara's and wands.

Personalized Birthday Sign

Carriage & Melamine plates found at Home Goods

Picture frames used as name plates from Michael's

Each child received a Tiara and a Crown

We took pictures with the cutout Tiana. I had to have her somewhere at the Party :-)

Princess Daesia's Dessert Buffet. The kids so loved this area!

Believe it or not, I found these cookies at Home Goods! Gotta love that store.

Favors filled with all things Princess & frog

Games consisted of feed the frog, create a crown or tiara & free play. I purchased a frog net from Home Goods and some huge insects from Oriental Trading and the kids love trying to throw the insect in the frogs mouth.

The kids went home with a lot of loot
