Hi.  My name is Susanne and I’m addicted to party planning.  Haha!  Ok, maybe not addicted but it’s definitely one of my favorite things about being a mom.  I love watching my kids eyes light up when they see the cake that I made or the treats table all set up.  And then seeing them have a blast and talk about their party months later!  Yesterday my baby girl turned four (sniff, sniff!) and she requested a mermaid theme for her party.  I had so much fun putting this together!  Here are a few little details…

Wow!  Way to get the word out, everyone!  We had 370 votes on the poll and the winner was (with 120 votes)… #9!!!  Congratulations!  I will be e-mailing you soon to get you your prize!

And for the second winner…

I had random.org choose a number between 1 and 42 and the winner is number 40:
