The Olympics

Ok, so I LOVE a good theme party. It's been a very long time since I've been involved in an awesome one. Mostly because I've moved too far away from Brad. I decided that even though I don't live near my fun inspiration does not mean that I cannot have fun or that fun people aren't here....because they are. I decided that an Olympics party would be perfect. We planned and planned and made a lot of cupcakes and then we were ready. So much fun was had by all. The basic premise was that each family was a different country (real or made up). You pretty much just have to see the pictures for this one.

The most amazing thing EVER.

Five different flavors of cupcakes...that's right...Amazing.

Here's the back. I moved my hair too :-)

Our parade of Nations..that's right, I said parade.

Sandy humored me and played the Olympic theme song

on his trumpet during the parade. He's a very good husband.

The events begin as I rock the neck hula-hoop

Italy and the Republic of Riley go for the bonus

of a successful pass of the hoop...oooh, bold choice.
