Taco Bout a Party!




{Homemade paper flowers from tissue paper were perfect for a Fiesta drink station}


{This beautiful Fiesta cake was a lime chiffon coconut with buttercream frosting.}
{These adorable no-bake Sombrero Sugar Cookies were a hit!}
{what's a Fiesta without churros?  These were a simple recipe and I made the mini so the kids could enjoy!}


      Gavin's 2nd Fiesta was everything and more!  We celebrated with a taco bar, tons of guac, and made sure to sugar the kids up on candy from the piñata. It was so amazing to see how much Gavin had grown from his first birthday since he was just starting to walk last year and this year, he was talking to everyone in complete sentences and couldn't wait to open his presents.  
   
     Before I was a Mom, I didn't get too much into DIY crafts but since Gavin LOVES arts and crafts, I wanted to really take a stab at making a lot of the decor myself with a mix of Target to the rescue. The mini piñatas were a blast to make.. I might even do a tutorial!  The tissue paper flowers were a lot of work but super cheap; I made like 25 for $1!  Gavin and I had fun putting together this whole fiesta and I'd like to continue to keep this tradition in getting him involved with planning for his big day every year.  


   P.S. of my outfit looks familiar, I wore it on a recent Cinco de Mayo outtake because I LOVE this shirt so much.  It's from Aeropostale and it's currently on sale now!



Ever After,
Jamie
