This was the day before we moved out of our little apartment in Orem, and it was very fitting that we had one last little event before we parted ways. I got a little carried away with the "light refreshments" as usual. But hey, you can't blame me, right? I had to get it out of my system before I moved across the country with no friends or family to entertain. It will probably be a while before we host something like this. Sad.
My favorite bits were the tiny elephants and the Jones soda :)
My Mom bought Jones' blessing clothes and came early to get him dressed. All of these images were taken by me, except the last five of me and Jones, which Erin took. Thanks Erin!
And I strong-armed my sis into taking portraits of me and my baby boy on his special day- I adore these. Thanks, Erin. (taken by Erin, edited by me)

gorgeous photos of mother and son!!! And such an impressive party.
lovely party! i adore those cupcake papers. and is that just wrapping paper you had the guys hold up in the background?
the portraits of you and jones are DARLING. if it wasn't weird, i might have to put one up on our wall. but that would be weird...so nevermind. he's just so handsome!
It's rolled paper from Ikea... meant for table covering (it's not wrapping paper). I got about 5 different rolls for $3.99 each about 2 years ago and they are the best.
Usually they are in stock about now when they get wrapping paper, etc. in time for the holidays, but I didn't see any last year at my local store. If you see a pattern you like, stock up! I use them every time I have a party.
Jones soda=stroke of genius.
And I'm impressed that you managed to pull all this off amid moving and you still look fabulous in those photos. I myself am still frazzled and my baby is 4 months old...
Gorgeous pictures! Jones is adorable. And I am still in awe of the beautiful parties that you throw. All of the decorations and food look delectable!
