MY NIECE'S 7TH BIRTHDAY PARTY

My niece, Katherine, turned 7 recently and my photographer brother captured the "clown" party that his creative genius wife put together.

My sister-in-law, Karrie, put together a delicious and kid-friendly spread that was as much a feast for the eyes as for the stomach.

I love all the bright colors! Great way to welcome a long-awaited Spring in Atlanta.

What kid doesn't love sprinkles and gum balls?

Jeremy is an award-winning photographer and former Ralph Lauren design director for the NY stores. He now has a photography studio in Atlanta and I am trying to talk him into showing us what he and his wife have recently done with their farmhouse in the country. They are one talented couple! Hopefully I will be able to twist their arm enough to send me some photos for a future house tour post.

What a beautiful party! And I'm very inspired by it since I recognize Martha Stewart's Tiny Party items, and I just purchased the kit.

As Katherine's Aunt Madelyn, I can assure you that I have enjoyed many beautiful parties at her family's home. And Jeremy is a fabulous photographer; just go online and visit his website.

Oh I am inspired! My daughter turns 6 in May and I will definitely be borrowing from these ideas - the chocolate sprinkle covered pretzel sticks in gumballs are just adorable. What a lucky girl to have such talented parents!
