What an incredibly fun day I had shooting my new headshots with Jillian Kay, photographer & owner of Epoxy Studios in San Jose, California.

My husband is not a fan of mayonnaise, so I'm always on the lookout for non-mayo salads. I made this Italian roasted potato salad that was absolutely delicious! Because of the egg, it could even act as a main course!

ITALIAN ROASTED POTATO SALAD

I needed a cake stand in black and white  that wasn't traditional, but did have a formal feel about it, so here's what I came up with using paper napkins and Mod Podge!

To make the cake plate...

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting one of the founders of Activity Hero. Activity Hero is new site started by moms, to help parents find summer camps, after school activities, and even party locations for their kids. Brilliant idea, right? It's super easy to navigate and I actually found a summer camp for Lainey on their site.

They are rolling out new locations all the time, so if they're not in your area, shoot them an email.

How wonderful are these "Away we Go" transportation party printables designed by Chieu Anh Urban, based on her baby-preschool book, Away We Go! A Shape and Seek Book. These printables would be perfect at styling your boy 1st birthday or boy baby shower.

The collection includes: cupcake flags, banner (with pennants for birthday or baby shower), thank you cards, tented display cards, welcome signs, shape signs, and 17 coloring pages (to keep your little guests busy)!
