A Big Apple Birthday

Sorority sister K has three littles and goes ALL OUT for their parties.  (Ahhh, a girl after my own heart.)  At first peek I fell head over heels in L.O.V.E. with this clever New York City themed affair inspired by a summer trip to the big apple. Y’all sit back, relax and enjoy a trip to the city that never sleeps!

 

The party-goers all donned the iconic I <3 NYC tees, made my K’s also talented sister B.  I mean, HOW ADORABLE!  And what a fantastic favor!!

The kids fueled up on classic food truck eats and drinks in Central Park…

 

…before playing baseball in Yankee Stadium and basketball with the Harlem Globe Trotters.
 
Guests were even invited to embark on the Staten Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty.



K thought of everything…even make your own NYC Taxi Cab picture frames!

With NO shortage of activities (just the way I like entertain a gaggle of kids), K’s basement was transformed into Radio City Music Hall where the kids piled in to watch Home Alone 2: Lost in New York while snacking on popcorn, juice, street stand pretzels and an endless array of sweets from Luke’s Candy Bar (a la the famed Dylan’s Candy Bar.)

 

And with all of that, I think it was the dessert table that stole the show.  After a countdown in Times Square, the kids dove into red and yellow twizzlers, NYPD donuts, cupcakes, caramel apple lollipops, yellow/black Oreo cookies, marshmallow pops and "big" apples!!
And finally, the birthday boy and his sweet and always fab mommy K.  Where oh where do the years go?!?!  Seems like yesterday this girl was leading all sorts of secret sorority rituals as our fearless Prezzy.

The happiest of birthdays to you, L.  And hats off to K for pulling off such a thoughtful and eventful celebration!!
