Olivia's Donut Shoppe Cake Smash

Donuts are just so cute!  Add them with cake and a sweet little baby and they get even more adorable!  While we were taking Olivia's Donut Shoppe pictures I wanted to have a smash cake for her and make it myself.  I had high hopes of making it closer to her birthday in December, but I was a little busy...so I made it in March and we took pictures the same day and it turned out JUST FINE!  If you'd like to see the time lapse of me assembling and decorating this cake you can go to my YouTube channel HERE!  She was so cute when she saw the cake, she took off each donut and took a bite out of each of them then placed each one back on the cake, she never even took a bite out of the cake! haha So I made a whole cake for her just to eat a few bites of store bought donuts.  Sounds about right. haha!  

Here's where you can find everything that I used:

Olivia's Donut Shoppe Pictures

For Olivia's first birthday we had the theme of Olivia's Donut Shoppe!  I had Dallin make this adorable stand for decoration and for a gift for Livy, that she could use for years to come.  If you want to see more of her Donut Smash you can go HERE.  It's so sweet and sad how fast she's grown since those pictures.  We took these pictures a couple of weeks ago and I love these just the same.  I'll link where we got everything below if you're interested.  And meanwhile pass the donuts! :)

The photo shoot couldn't be complete with out a tantrum about bows.  Olivia hates her bows and really prefers not to wear them as you can see.  haha!  

Eventually she got distracted and didn't mind the bow.  

I love that after when we were cleaning up she still wanted to play with the donuts!  Even to this day she plays with the donuts and stand pretty regularly!  Mom/party planning win right there! :)

I have to break all these pictures up in two posts because I took so many! haha Sorry, not sorry!  These pictures are priceless.  

Check back soon for the Donut Shoppe Cake Smash she did the same day!

Throwback Date Night In Box

This Date Night In box was honestly one of the most fun boxes we have received!  It was full of memories, long conversations, and laughing so hard I would cry!  

Seriously it was so funny!

Here's what was in this box:  an inflatable microphone, 2 pairs of sunglasses, a Rubix cube, Pop Rocks candy, Ring Pop, Smarties, Kool Aid mix, multi color pen, long bags, DNI Throwback pamphlet packed with games and ideas for Date Night, and Truth/Dare Karaoke.

Dallin is always so cute and loves to read up on our date night.  We started with Gnarly Trivia!  It was so fun to come up with the answers together or see who was right!?  Do you know which pop boy band name is made up of the last letter of each band member's name?  It's only the very best Nsync!!!  I should've known that!

There were so many fun things in this box, Dallin and I were throughly entertained!

Next we played MASH!  My absolute favorite!  I use to play this ALL the time growing up!  It was so fun to make one for Dallin and I.  Even if we are destined to live in a shack.  ;)

The next thing we played was Truth/Dare Karaoke.  This was the game that had me laughing so hard I was crying.  I now know that Dallin is the best/worst person to play Truth or Dare with! haha He loves to do crazy, unexpected things so any dare is completely fine by him.  It made for lots of laughs though and we are just fine with that!  

For example Dallin got Dared to do his best impression of the air guitar and of course he messes up his hair and gets ALL into it! Notice his hair in this picture and the face.  He is so funny!

I got to choose my own dare for Dallin and I had him do his hilarious impression of the Thriller dance outside while he took the garbage out! It was so funny!  Do you see his zombie hands?  It was the best.  Luckily I only had to do one Dare and all others were Truths!

We love to pull out our Date Night In box during nap time on a weekend so we can have some time together during the day while Olivia is asleep.  Day dates are so fun!  We even have more things to do in this box like make freeze pops with the 2 bags and Kool Aid mix, and can't wait for another date night or day to finish them!

I did receive this box for free from Date Night In Boxes for reviewing purposes.  I'm so grateful I can share things I love with you.
