Y’all… My birthday was last Wednesday. Although it pains me to say this, I turned… 28. I thought it would be a lot worse of a feeling, but thankfully, I just feel the same!

And, I also feel super loved. The reason for the sentiment is because of all of the amazing friends and family I have. Each year (starting with last) I throw a “GIRLS ONLY” sleepover party for my birthday. All my favorite girls come over for the night to watch rom-coms, get chatty, and snack on all-things bad for you, of course. Our significant others do whatever guys do when they get the night off (that would be fishing for my husband).

This year, I wanted to throw an Emoji party. I know what you are thinking… “This girl is going through a quarter life crisis.” However, I do not currently have little ones. And, I also can’t wait on those little ones to throw awesome birthday parties. So, I did it!

I checked out Pinterest for some great ideas that I could put my own spin on, and I think everyone loved it. So much. Check it out!

All of the Emoji decorations came from all over the place. The adorable pillow was found at Walmart for about five bucks! And, I found an Emoji poster at my school’s book fair. I cut all of them out and used them all over the house.

Scentsy Party... And, A New Obsession

A couple of Saturdays ago, I threw a small get-together with close friends and family. Why you ask? My friend from school, Kristin, is an independent consultant for Scentsy. I’ve never tried their products before, but on a planning day a little while ago, she brought all of her amazing scent samples, and all day I smelled amazing smells (and lesson planned…).

I fell in love with everything that came close to my nose, so of course, I wanted to host a party!

She is a busy mommy of two, so I told her I would get everything together for her to just show up, show off her scents, and make some moolah. Because it was just a little party, I didn’t have to decorate too much, but I wanted to be sure that the product was the star of the show.
