Parties for the pint-sized people in our lives always tend to be a little crazy, but we did our best to create a pretty but fun look for my favorite 3 year-old.
Ice cream cakes - one for you, one for me.
A little natural sugar, too.
The Birthday Girl (it was a swim party)
Birthday Girl's baby sister - giving those cakes the wishful, side-eye
Not exactly a mag-worthy candy bar, but it made the kids happy.
Aaaand...we're done.
***Yesterday, as I read the horrific post about fellow blogger, Marija's, sudden death on Saturday, I was again reminded about the Universe's strange cycle. 
As my family rejoiced in the celebration of another year of our child's life, another family's life was devastated. There just aren't words. Peace be with you, Marija.
I'm a decorator, wife, and busy mom of three. I believe in elevating the average space, and bridging the great design divide. I love homes, and aspire beyond builder-grade blah. This blog chronicles our own home projects, what inspires me, and sometimes, just what's on my design-track mind. Taking ordinary homes to higher levels is my little happy place.

Looks like it was a wonderful Birthday celebration..Gold star to mummy...you did a fantastic job x
That's a beautifully fun table!
My 3 1/2 year old has the same swimsuit - very Marimekko.
Great party! When I saw the picture of Ben on Avery's blog the tears rolled. I'm so happy he was able to be with you guys to celebrate.
What a great party - I bet she had a ball!
I had not read Marija's blog before you posted this today. How very sad. I feel like I've been missing out on this jewel of a blog and then to come across it this way is not quite right. What a wonderful tribute that her husband wrote. He and her kids will be in my prayers.
looks like a great party!
soo soo cute!!
I love the bright colors you selected for the party. Perfect for a little girl's birthday celebration.
I too was saddened to hear of Marija's passing. What a tragedy.
This looks like it was a HAPPY birthday! And I do like that candy bar! Baby Isla is getting so big. Love seeing pictures of your girls.
I read about Maija...my heart breaks. She lived only a few miles from me.
