Recently I wanted to go downtown to get some party favors and a pinata for True’s Angry Birds Party. My cousin Mark, his love Jeimy and daughter Chloe accompanied us. We were early and a lot of the stores were still closed. I asked if they wanted to go to Starbucks… they said they could introduce me to something better! Boy were they right. Bottega Louie’s is like a little slice of heaven. Take a look! Everything we tried was AMAZING!! True loved it and had fun hanging out with his cousin. Definitely worth the trip to LA!!

The sweetest and most pure moments are witnessing the bond between mother and child. This baby girl melted my heart. How could she not. Tons of raven hair, chubby rolls, and so cuddly.

True is five years old! Where has the time gone. It seems like yesterday we were crying tears of joy when we found out that we were going to be parents. I honestly cannot remember what life was like without him. He is our everything.

 This year True could not decide what kind of party he wanted. He first chose Star Wars, then changed his mind and picked a Hot Wheels theme. At the last minute he had changed his mind once more and said he wanted Angry Birds. I told him that we would have to stick with that theme and he could not change his mind!  I designed his invitations, sent them out asap. In the meantime I was really busy and started all his decor for this party in 4 days. Yes! I said four days!! I had very little sleep and a whole bunch of help from a few of my friends and family. I couldn’t be more happy with the results. More importantly True was so over the moon happy!!  Here are some photos I was able to take. I honestly wish I could of taken more but I had to be a good hostess too!

A few of the cool things we did was make an Angry Birds Photo booth, I drew them out and my husband cut everything. I also asked him to make benches for a kids lounge! It was a huge hit and super cute and easy to do. I also went to Joannes and bought foamies. I cut out lips and mustaches, the crowns and others were part of kits I had bought in the past. I also bought foam balls at the 99cent store and decopage them. My friend Judith did all the birds faces. She did an awesome job. She also did the rosettes and I added the birds to them. We also made felt bags my cousin Mark, Jeimy and my friend Natalie with angry birds characters and Jeimy and  I glittered names on the back so each kid had their own custom bag.

My friend Vanessa did the awesome red angry bird marshmallow pops, and pretzel sticks. They were super cute!! My friend Veronica ordered 3 dozen chocolate covered strawberries and they were sooo good!!

My cake and all the other desserts were made by sisters Karina and Stephanie of Klassy Sugga, you can find them on Facebook. This whole party was DIY! Its very hard to find angry bird items and not break the bank. I did everything on a budget and a whole lot of creativity!
