Boy, oh boy, is it hot!!!
According to many AZ cities, however, the summer swimming season is oficially drawing to a close. With most public swimming facilities closing their doors by August 9 (many closed July 26!), that's leaving a lot families without a fun way to cool off.
Never fear! Go to LetsPartyMagazine.com to track down swimming facilities, splash pads, and spraygrounds that will continue to stay open through the triple digit weather - and some even as late as October! Go to the Just for Kids section, or simply click here for a Valleywide listing of Pools and Splash Pads in AZ!
Hudson Park Splash Pad, Tempe, Arizona.
Our photo shoot with Oh My Dog! Boutique & Spa was a success. The puppies couldn't have been cuter or more cooperative - with the help of some fabulous outfits and treats, of course! I brought my daughter, Kyera, to 'assist' with the shoot, along with our family's latest star, a 4.5 pound Yorkie-Shih Tzu named Kyambria.
Here we are getting ready for the shoot; Oh my Dog! has so many adoreable outfits it was hard to choose. Jackie, the shop's owner, arranged a lineup of leggy models for the shoot (ha ha, couldn't help myself), whose mommies did an outstanding job with hair and wardrobe.
The 'edibles' shots were clearly some of Kyambria's favorites. Yes, that is cake on her face - an organic dog cake! Stay tuned for the upcoming article on Puppy Party do's, don'ts, and how-to's, and more pics on LetsPartyMagazine.com.
My father and "new mommy" were visiting from Missouri over the holiday. We took the kids to the fireworks and the mosquito's were so BAD that two of my kids ended up at urgent care for bites all over their face. They look like they have a horrible disease. Learned that some kids just get bad bug bites and others don't. You would think that I would know this after having 45 of them, but apparently I learn something new each day.
Lori, Executive Editor for http://www.letspartymagazine.com/, has been working hard all afternoon on staging our pet party photo shoot. We will be helping my dog (Kyambria), a little 4 pound Shih-Tzu/Yorkie celebrate her 2nd birthday with some of her doggie friends. I will be sure to let you know how the photo shoot turns out next week...and, we will post a few pictures so you can be part of the fun! Stay tuned!
After a fun-filled weekend at home with the nine kids, LetsPartyMagazine.com is back to work.

Today--we remember Michael Jackson, our King of Pop.
The Phoenix Event Professionals are THE MOST talented individuals I have ever met. I was fortunate enough to attend the NACE (National Association of Catering Executives) Confectionery Creations and Table Top Decor Creations Competition on Monday evening at the Arizona Grand Resort. The competition featured inspired table designs from Rio, Cairo, Tokyo, and Paris and more cake tastings than you could even sample. I know who my favorites were of the evening, and will bring you the results as soon as they are available. Stay tuned!
