This past weekend BW and I hosted a Cinco de Mayo party. Partly as an excuse to get friends together and partly as an excuse to show off our new place. Having spent way too much time on Pinterest meant there were several things I was dying to try. My bff, who happened to be staying with us last week, was
bullied into so sweet to help me decorate. So our evenings were spent in front of the TV cutting out tiny mustaches and tissue paper. Here are a few pics of our handy work and the very festive fiesta.
