Graduation Party Recap!


Last month McCray and I had a fun graduation party at my house with all of our friends and family to celebrate our high school completion and the exciting things that are ahead of us. I had so much fun planning and decorating for this party, I just had to share about it.


The Photo Booth




McCray and I spent most of the morning before the party setting up this photo booth. I think it turned out adorable but sadly McCray and I didn't really take any pictures together in it. We put up black mesh along the  fence to block the sunlight from coming through the fence and leaving awkward spots on our pictures. We then stapled streamers all along the black mesh and added tissue paper puffs and paper fans to the top of the streamers. We borrowed the pink chair from my mom's office and my mom DIYed the picture frame out of an old, ugly picture frame, spray paint, and fake flowers.
Shop: tissue paper puffs // paper fans // streamers // flamingo headbands


Food & More


The paint on our outside refrigerator was chipping and it didn't look very good so my mom had the idea of covering the fridge with all of my school pictures. It turned out so cute and I think everyone had fun looking at them. McCray's school pictures were in frames so we displayed hers on our food table.


Here's our food set up. For food we ordered a chicken nugget tray from Chick-fil-A and kept them warm in a crock pot. We also ordered two sandwich trays from Subway and along with that we had chips, dip, a veggie tray, and we rented a snow cone machine.



McCray and I love to scrapbook so we had a table where our guests could snap a picture on one of our Polaroids and decorate a page to go in our senior year scrapbooks. 

Shop: paper lanterns // graduation cactus plush // mint felt board  (use code SLMHS for 15% off) // light up cactus // food tents // teal tassel garland  // the lemon garland was from the Target Dollar Spot (not available on their website) // flamingo table cloth 
The Pool:




Before the party we filled the pool with tons of cute pool floats. The floats made great props for all of the fun pictures we took. 
Shop: peacock float // pineapple float // pretzel float // donut float // popsicle float // fry float // pug float


Luv ya!

My 21st Birthday + XOXO Dining Room Review

Last month I celebrated my 21st birthday at one of the most Instagramable restaurants in Dallas! If I were a restaurant, I'd definitely be XOXO Dining Room. From the pink building, to the picture-worthy garden, to the DJ's music selection, it could not have been a more perfect place to celebrate my 21st.

5 Audrey Hepburn Movies Free to Watch With Amazon Prime

It rained the entire Memorial Day Weekend here so I spent the long weekend watching movies. Audrey Hepburn is my favorite actress so I spent the weekend binge watching classic movies starring Audrey. I came across five of her movies on Amazon that are free to watch with Prime and thought I would share in case you're in need of a rainy day movie too.

A Day at Crocodile Encounters

In my  Spring Break Recap post  I mentioned going to a petting zoo and that I wanted to do a post about the adventure and that's what I am sharing with you today! The petting zoo was actually an alligator petting zoo that had other animals as well. The place was called Crocodile Encounters and it's near Houston. I must say that it was a bit sketchy (it was in some one's backyard!!) and I was a little bit nervous going in but it was a ton of fun! When you get there you enter through the gift shop where you can buy crocodile food that you can throw to them and lettuce you can feed to all of the other animals so we bought some to feed the animals. We didn't spend but a couple of hours there because this pale girl was quickly burning and I didn't want to be the color of a lobster the next day. And don't forget you can click on the pictures to view them larger!
