Sprinkling a "Fab Mama"

Last Saturday ( yes, I know I should have posted this on Mondayish??), two of my besties, Lori and Lauren, and I threw a baby sprinkle for our dear friend, Leah and baby Max! She is not only an amazing mother to sweet Ari already, but she is such a thoughtful friend to me. The sprinkle had to be special, it was a no brainer to all of us hostesses! 

Leah wanted us to keep it simple ( yeah, okay), so we opted for a restaurant setting in the evening. We chose a Nashville hot spot called Marche, and it was absolutely perfect!! The food, the ambiance, the service.....perfect! We went with some of the colors from Max's fab nursery, and accented it all with gold tones. All of the beautiful paper goods were designed by Lauren at Rock Paper Scissors. Gorgeous, aren't they? We toasted with some Prosecco in hand, and it was just an avalanche of delicious food from that point on.

Here are some pictures from our evening! Disclaimer : forgive some of the blurry pics. Like any great hostess/blogger, I did not charge my camera, so I had 30 secs to snap pics of the table and decor before it shut off. The rest are from my Iphone.

^^ The Fab Mama looking stunning! ^^

^^ If you have not eaten at Nothing Bundt cakes, you are missing out!! Seriously, amazing! ^^

^^ I had so much fun arranging these flowers! Flowers just make me happy! ^^

^^ Tea lights wrapped in gorgeous gold washi tape from Lauren's boutique! ^^

^^ Favor take out boxes for leftover bundt cakes. ^^

We love you Leah!!!! We can't wait to meet baby Max! He is already loved so much!!

Mother's Day Brunch

I know we are all kind of over Mother's Day posts, but I took a break from the internet for Mother's Day and the following day kind of.....so here are my pics from a low key Mother's Day Brunch that I put together for our sweet mothers. We are so blessed around the Patillo house!! Our mom's are both 5 minutes away right now, and we do NOT take it for granted (purposely). They are so helpful and so just always there when we need them. It almost seems unreal how often we get to get out by ourselves sans baby. Thank you so much!!!!

I got to sleep in a little to kick off my special day! I was given the cutest Mother's Day card by the cutest little girl ever!! ( because our own kids are the cutest in the world, right?) ;). Gabe had treated me to a mani/pedi on Friday so I was all set for the weekend. It was pretty perfect! Amara got me an Itunes gift card to go with my new Ipad mini. It is perfection......I am so excited to get it set up and fight over it with a toddler :) She calls it a "padpad". so cute!!
