Mom Megan threw her daughter a bowling party for her birthday. She mailed bright colored knee-high socks with the invitations. All of the guests wore outfits inspired by their crazy-colored socks...too cute! It looks like the girls really got into the spirit of things. Check out more of this party right here.

I wanted to end the week on a 'high' note with this doozy of a party from Amy Atlas, for her son Joshua. To say I love it would be a huge understatement! Much more of this plane inspired celebration right here.

Snow is in the forecast for tomorrow- yet again. I'm just glad it's not a school day for us (last time it was cancelled)! To get in the spirit I'm lusting after these donut snowmen from Matthew Mead. Or maybe it's just because I'm on my post-baby diet. Either way, I think they're super cute!

It is worth reading through Robin's write-up of her daughter's 'treasure hunt' birthday. This lady went to extraordinary lengths to make an extraordinary birthday! Just about everything was made from scratch (a 'failed' attempt at a homemade pinata did not deter her). The guests searched for hand-painted stones in the sand with clues on them, and popped glitter-filled balloons to lead them to the next task. Sounds like a blast! The treats are cute, too- check out the treasure chest birthday cake. I'm just waiting for the day my little ones are old enough to enjoy a party like this.

Mexican Clau's eye candy blog is loaded with just that... it is a feast for the eyes! Clau let us know of her recent favorites- a vintage party and a candy buffet. The vintage party looks like it is right out of a periodical or cookbook from the '50's. For more, check it out right here!

Sweet Lisa from Studio Del Fiore wanted to make sure the broquet was appropriately credited- the picture from the original post, as well as the one above- is actually a creation of Fantasy Floral Designs in California, though SDF makes broach bouquets as well. Check out FF designs right here, and SDF creations right here. They are both beautiful!

Lots of cute details in this asian-inspired 'cherry blossom' first birthday from life frosting. Check out the 'sushi'- all made of candy and sweet things (rice crispy treats, swedish fish, fruit rope, etc). Mom Chelsea went to extraordinary lengths to get all the details just right- including a cherry blossom adorned shirt. Check it out right here.

I had yet to come across a 'farm-themed' baby shower until I heard of this one from Sweet Iced Tea! Ginger was inspired by this 'mini farm' party posted last year.

Long ago I had read an article on the Korean tradition of celebrating the 100th day of a babies life. I loved this sweet, small celebration Minhee and Truman Cho threw for their little Tru's 100th. (More on this special tradition right here).

For years I've swooned over 'modern folk art' (think Anna Bond of Rifle). So I immediately fell in love with this folk-art inspired birthday party I spotted at Imprintables. I only wish I knew more details about the party!
