PARTY PLANNING Mode


I'm in FULL Party Planning Mode
for Miss Priss' SECOND Birthday Party!

Which means, I'll be acting like a crazy person from now until then!

(TWO months and counting until then)

I'm  absolutely  in LOVE with the theme...
it's VERY fitting!

I'm not revealing just yet... but I'll be posting clues until then!
