Red White & Blue &Gymnastics

    If you decide to do this, keep your choices simple. I chose to use cheese, crackers, turkey, watermelon, cantaloupe, strawberries, potato chips tortilla chips, and dip. This is one of my earlier children's parties, so I simply used plastic trays for everything. Today, my preference would be glass. Beautiful glass serving trays are easy to find on sale at your favorite department store, or you can go to the boutique (Goodwill, or other thrift store) and browse for these items. Glassware are small worthwhile investments that can be reused for years to come.

    Another fun addition to this party were the red, white and blue leis that were given to the parents, which helped them to feel a part of the festivities. I also gave the kids colorful headbands. At the end of the party, they all received medals. All can be found on Amazon.

About TJ >

I founded Lavelle Publishing in 1997 with the release of my first poetry book, The Desires of A Woman: Poems Celebrating Womanhood. I was 26 years old. I published my second book Sorority Sisters in 1998. Sorority Sisters was picked up by Villard Books, a division of Random House and rereleased in 2000. Over 80,000 copies have been sold. So much has happened in my life since the release of my first books. I am thankful for the twist and turns that has been my journey. My life lessons have made me wiser, more grounded and more secure in who I am. One thing that I have realized is that not only do I love to write, but I like to express my writing through different genres. As you explore my site, you will see what I mean.
