JD's Ghostbusters Party

A couple weeks ago we celebrated JD’s 5th birthday!  If you follow this blog or know JD personally, then you know he is obsessed with the Ghostbusters.  So, when we asked him last year what he wanted to do for his 5th birthday we weren’t surprised that he begged for a Ghostbusters party.
One of JD’s favorite Ghostbusters scene is the library scene from the first movie, so I thought it would be awesome to have his party in an actual library, and Aba just happens to work at a school with an awesome library!

When planning JD’s party I wanted to make sure to include items and quotes from his favorite scenes, thank goodness Twinkies came back!

I also found some wonderful bakers/artist who really added a special touch to JD’s party.  Laura from Sunflower Bakery, who did an amazing job creating Ghostbusters Logo and Slimer cookies for JD.  The cookies were just perfect, I felt so guilty eating one, but I will say they were delicious!  Veronica from VLunas Cakes who created the extraordinary cake you see below, she never seizes to amaze me. Her cakes are a work of art, and they are so yummy (once you can bring yourself to actually cut into the masterpiece).  Big thanks to Nina Angie and Nino Alex for the cake!

We couldn’t have a Ghostbuster’s party without lots of Ectoplasm (slime)! Thanks Auntie Gaby for teaching all the kiddos how to make slime, they had a blast.

I think we may have angered the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man with the S'mores Bar, but it was well worth it!

We couldn't forget the ghost hunt! 

That big smile says it all!  JD loved his party and I really loved planning it.  We all had such a Ghostbustin good time!

AJ's "Henry Hugglemonster" 1st Birthday Party!

This Sunday we celebrated my cutie patootie AJ's 1st birthday in a very "ROARSOME" way with his favorite character Henry Hugglemonster!

A million thanks to Veronica @VLunasCakes for this amazing Henry Hugglemonster cake, she is a true artist!

I have to admit I really enjoyed styling this party, although when my best friend Angie and her husband Alex announced the theme I will admit I was pretty clueless about this famous little monster named Henry (I live in a world of Lego and super heroes at the moment)!  But I am now officially a Henry Hugglemonster fan (I've watched a "few" episodes), It really is a cute show!

Wordless Wednesday: Discover the Dinosaurs

Stan Lee's Comikaze 2013

On Friday my friend Vanessa and her family visited STAN LEE'S COMIKAZE EXPO 2013.  She sent me a picture of the Ecto-1 which was on display at the expo.  When I saw this picture I knew we had to take JD to see it!  So, on Sunday we headed to the Expo at Los Angeles Convention Center with our little Ghostbuster!

When we arrived JD was told he needed to have his weapon checked!  I thought it was so cool that the staff treated him like he was a real Ghostbuster.
Once we were through the door we headed straight to the Ecto-1!

During our visit JD got to meet so many of his favorite characters.  Many of them actually came up and asked if they could take a picture with him, which was totally cool!

We all had a great time, we can't wait to go back next year!
