Traveling with Baby

This post contains affiliate links. Since I was on maternity leave all of December, I took Little C to Minnesota a week early and my husband met us later to celebrate Christmas with my family. My parents had flown to DC when baby girl was first born but the rest of my family had not […]

Last February my church, Waterfront Church DC, hosted a Night to Shine at the Nationals Stadium in Washington, DC.

What Not to Pack in your Hospital Bag via 11cupcakes free checklist download

Throughout my pregnancy, there are many things I said would never happen that happened. Your water doesn’t break before labor begins, that only happens in the movies I said. My water broke before I started contractions. There is no way I will deliver this baby early, first time moms are always late I said. My water broke […]

Harvest Festival Block Party

When Redeemer City Church asked if I would throw their first Harvest Festival, I WAS IN. They wanted to create a fun afternoon filled with games, prizes, crafts, food and music that the entire neighborhood would enjoy. Flyers were sent out to houses in the area and given to kids at neighboring schools. Overall it […]

Baby Girl Shower

July 10, 2016 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Baby Showers, Celebrate

My husband and I are currently preparing for the arrival of our first child this fall. If all goes well, our baby girl will be arriving in October. We couldn’t be more thrilled and are knee deep in baby registries, furniture assembly, and Daycare tours. While I was home to see family last week my […]

Warm Up With Hot Chocolate

January 24, 2016 By Holly 10 Comments Filed Under: Celebrate, Christmas, Hot Cocoa Bar, Party Food

If you live on the east coast chances are, like me, you have spent the last 3 days hunkered down in your house waiting out winter storm Jonas. Having grown up in Minnesota, I am mystified by people’s reaction to snow here. The little amount of snow (or chance of snow) it takes to shut […]

Neighborhood Picnic

November 2, 2015 By Holly Leave a Comment Filed Under: Celebrate, Free Downloads, Neighborhood Picnic, Picnics

I recently had the pleasure of planning a celebration picnic following the launch of a new church in Washington, DC. Redeemer City Church was having their first service in September and asked that I plan a fun afternoon with games and food for everyone who was helping and attending later that afternoon. Since the party […]

Circus Baby Shower

July 21, 2015 By Holly 4 Comments Filed Under: Baby Showers, Celebrate, Circus Party, Free Downloads

There were so many fun details to this Circus Party Baby Shower that would be easy to recreate. From the crepe paper circus tent to the large marquee letter to the circus ‘elephant steps’ and ticket garland. My favorite thing was the circus tent over the table that was made from crepe paper streamers. Starting at […]

She insisted on dressing up like Reba McEntire, and thanks to her new love of country music I now know all the words to ‘Consider Me Gone’. Happy Halloween from the Queen of Country Music and her dinosaur sidekick. 🎃🎤🦖

Our first neighborhood New Year’s Day parade was a success! 🥳 Thank you for the great idea #bobgoff
