I love details of a party.
I like to see Pinterest worthy food/crafts/etc.
When Jennifer Parnell showed up at my front door with her camera....I told her I wanted detail photos......and she delivered....like always.
Martini fruit cups with a dollop of cream cheese fruit dip.
Because, who doesn't like fruit in a mini cup??
Confession: Those are paper plates! Gasp!
I only have girly china plates. #mynewlifewithaboy
Chicken salad in pre-made phyllo cups. This is the perfect pick up food! And it makes your chicken salad go a long way! I used H's sweet Aunt's recipe! It's our favorite.
Another confession: I asked my friend Kristy to make these Oreo truffles. I didn't want to mess up a good thing she has going. I know my talents, but I also know hers!
I displayed all of the photos we have of baby boy.
Another confession: I asked my mom to make these pimento and cheese sandwiches. She obliged. And we are thankful.
The key to making chocolate dipped rice krispies.....is to buy pre-made rice krispies! Thanks pinterest.
Last Confession: this is a grocery store cake.
And, I made the banner!
I was going to order the banner from Etsy.....but the cheapest that I found that I actually liked was $20. Heck to the no.
$4 later, I have my banner.
The overall menu consisted of:
Sweet TeaLemonade with fruit
Fruit Cups
Chicken Salad cups
Cake
Rice Krispie treats
Oreo truffles
Anti-pasta platter
Pimento/Cheese sandwiches
Then, we took the family to go eat Hibachi and grandmother wanted a roll with her rice and noodles. I should have given her chopsticks just to see what happens.
We had fun at Sweet Baby Jones' party.....and I'm already starting to plan his baby dedication!
Surprised?
