It has taken me awhile to write this post for a few reasons. First, I was busy returning to work helping plan and coordinate a fashion show while simultaneously coming down with a terrible cold. Also, I just had a hard time facing reality and the cold after the perfect honeymoon in Costa Rica. If I ever win the lottery (which is impossible since I don’t play) we will most definitely be purchasing a vacation home in Costa Rica.
I was so lucky to be able to join my husband on his work conference trip to New Orleans. We made the trip into a little babymoon knowing that a vacation with just the two of us probably isn’t going to happen again any time soon.
With four children, I throw a lot of birthday parties, and I’m always excited to hear what theme my kids have in mind for their upcoming celebrations. One of my middle children most recently selected Moana as her birthday party theme. Below, I’ll share our Moana decorations, party activities, favor bags, and more. I try to stay within a small budget for birthday parties and avoid creating a lot of waste.
Our daughter’s birthday happened right when COVID-19 started affecting our lives. For several days, my husband and I wavered over whether to throw the party or not. When we understood that a stay-at-home order was going to be placed soon it was an easy decision to cancel. We were still able to give our daughter a special day by having her Lion King birthday party just without any of the guests. I think she had a great time!
