The Joy of Party Planning

by

As most of my friends and family know I love hosting parties, it really doesn’t matter what type I love them all.  I don’t know where this love for parties came from, maybe because I had to have a birthday party every year with a new theme and decorations.  My birthday parties were the highlight of my year, as soon as it ended I was already planning the next years party.  When one of my best friends got married a few years ago I was more than happy to throw her a bridal shower.  Since I have a son I don’t get to throw girly parties and I had so much fun planning this party.
