Merry Christmas to all!
..Now, it is time to start to prepare for that New Years Eve Party!
Where are you going to celebrate New Years? Are you going with someone special? …And the most important question, if you are going to be drinking alcoholic beverages, do you have a designated driver?
As usual, we are procastinating about where we are going to celebrate… We are thinking DC, Phillie or Pittsburgh. I guess it is time for me to make a decision.
Please be safe, and have fun partying for the season!
A friend of mine is a bridesmaid in a 1960′s Theme wedding next week.
From what I hear, there will be no wedding cake, only carmel apples…and a party bus for the reception? I can’t wait to hear all about it.
…And here is a dress similar to what the bridesmaids are wearing!

Check back soon for all of the details of how groovy this wedding was!

One of the best Holiday gatherings I have been to was a non-traditional one. We had Christmas dinner, Hawaiian Style. And this brought me to this theme holiday party idea. Everyone has so many Holiday parties to go to this time of year, and they all are pretty much the same. Why not have a Holiday Hawaiian Luau?
You can get some great party supplies from Party Favor Mall. They are so easy to order from and have great quality party favors and party supplies.
These Palm Tree Place Card Holders are so cute!

Well, it is that time of year when we all are rushing around planning our holiday parties. I found these great little candles that will give your holiday cocktail party a special look.

These decorative candles can be found at Party Favor Mall along with some great party favors.
I was in the doctors office reading the People magazine from October 22, 2007 and saw that Ashlee Simpson had an 80s Prom Night Theme Birthday Party. …I thought, “What a great party planning idea!”
Of course, being the party for Ashlee Simpson, Jessica Simpson was there with the big hair and 1980s prom dress. The pictures were cute.
This would be a great party idea for a sweet sixteen party, a 21st birthday party, or really any party! Party decorations and party supplies are easy. Decorate the room with streamers and a disco ball, get an couple of 80′s premixed cds and you are ready. …You can find some great 80s prom dresses in thrift stores for cheap.
I want to wish all of you a Happy Halloween.
Be safe trick or treating tonight. Don’t forget your flashlights and glow sticks.
This past weekend I had the opportunity to assist a great organization get the word out on a very cool concept at the Atlanta Motor Speedway. The Speedway Children’s Charity has a way for you to become a permanent part of NASCAR . The Winners’ Wall is located at Atlanta Motor Speedway, Lowe’s Motor Speedway in Charlotte, NC, Texas Motor Speedway, Infineon Raceway in California, and Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
This is one of the coolest things I have ever heard of. How cool would it be to get your family or group that you go to the races with to be a permanent part of one of these five amazing tracks! …AND you get an 8×10 of your picture in granite!
This is a picture of the wall in Atlanta with our wonderful helper, also known as the Coolest Kid on the Planet!
Check out the Winners’ Wall and get your place in history. There are limited numbers of tiles available, so get yours today.

GO PENN STATE!!!
vs. 
Penn State is playing Michigan today and I have to miss the game. My son is playing his own football game today.
I am a born and raised Michigan girl who converted to a Penn State fan when I moved to Pennsylvania about 6 years ago. This game is the toughest game for me to watch. I have an internal fight inside, but alway scream for Penn State!
