I am married to my high school sweetheart, have a 5 year old daughter, one year old boy/girl twins via IVF, and am the writer of "Nat Your Average Girl" blog. I adore planning and throwing great parties!

Geometric Dinosaur Baby Shower

Geometric Dinosaur Baby Shower

When my best friend had her baby we knew she needed a shower even though this was baby number three because it was her first BOY! We went with a dinosaur theme but freshened it up with masculine colors, metallics, and great florals.

Ready to Pop Baby Shower

When I found out my best friend was having a baby boy we wanted to shower her with a fun Popsicle inspired baby shower. She was due in the middle of summer so the theme was quite appropriate! We even made signature Popsicles for our guests.

Modern Boho Geometric Nursery

When I found out I was having boy/girl twins it was quite a surprise because the doctor originally told us we were having two boys! I was already neck deep in nursery decor and there was no turning back. I simply threw in a few more dusty pink items and called it a day! I went with a modern boho nursery with geometrical accents.

Princess Birthday Party

Fit for a Princess Birthday Party

My daughter is like every other 4 year old and obsessed with Disney princesses. I wanted to avoid the typical tacky princess party so I went out on my own and came up with a classier version of the classic princess party!

Under the Sea Birthday Party

Under the Sea Birthday Party

My daughter is obsessed with mermaids lately and I wanted to steer clear of the typical Ariel party (because I like to make my life more difficult.) I wanted to try a balloon arch and it went pretty well for my first one! I chose deep blues, teals, and shimmery gold to give an ocean vibe to the party.

One Prickly Pair Twin Birthday Party

One Prickly Pair Twin Birthday Party

For my twins’ first birthday I went with a prickly “pair” theme because they are a pair. ;) It made sense to decorate with cacti because that trend is so popular right now. I based my whole design off of some wrapping paper that I spied at Meri Meri. I created my own cacti garlands, bought fake cacti in the dollar bin at Target, and found other cactus inspired decor online. I love the way it turned out!
