Halle Berry celebrates her daughter’s third birthday in Malibu

by

According to People magazine, Halle Berry celebrated her daughter Nahla's third birthday with a small party at her Malibu beach house. This comes at the end of a busy week for the X-Men star, which had her traveling from New York to Miami and back across the country to Los Angeles to see her little one.

Berry covered her house with blue, red, green and purple balloons. After enjoying cake, they took the party to the beach, where the children were delighted by the site of a red and blue bouncy castle. A source told the news outlet that few birthday gifts were given, as only three or four of Nahla's friends had been invited. Notably absent was her father, Gabriel Aubry and her mother's current boyfriend, Olivier Martinez.

The celebration was a welcome respite from what had proved to be a difficult custody battle between Berry and Aubry. According to TMZ, the Canadian model filed for paternity back in January after talks between the two broke down.

If there's one thing that comes with spring, it's basketball fever. Thanks to March Madness and the NCAA tournament, people all over the country are taking part in their office betting pools and filling out their brackets in order to join in on the fun.

If you know a pregnant lady who's been knitting blue baby socks as opposed to pink ones, why not take this theme and run with it while planning an upcoming shower? It doesn't matter if the mom-to-be is a fan of the sport or not – coordinating a shindig based on this motif will certainly get her excited to have her beautiful newborn boy in her arms.

First, send out invitations. Remember, the finals take place the first week of April, so you're going to want to get started on these right now.

Also, make sure to pick out baby shower favors that feature adorable images. Candy in the shape of basketballs or even personalized lollipops that feature your home state's team logo on them will surely be appreciated by all.

Make your wedding invitations stand out amongst the rest

One of the most exciting aspects of knowing you'll be invited to a wedding is receiving the invite in the mail. Although it may seem silly, seeing awe-inspiring stationery adorned with fancy writing often leads people to circle the date on their calendars and get all giddy when the day draws near.

So if you're currently in the midst of wedding planning, why not make sure your invitations are something incredibly special? Although it may take some careful planning and preparation, the work you put in will pay off in the end.

First, try to pick out invitations that match the colors of your affair. For example, if you asked your bridesmaids to wear violet and silver shoes, purchase lilac stationery and emblazon the paper with silver writing.

Additionally, don't skimp on calligraphy! Everyone loves to see a beautifully handwritten invite that was specially addressed to them. Match them with your wedding favors and your guest will be chatting about your event for the rest of the year.

Throw a special 40th birthday party for a loved one

by

Turning 40 is certainly a milestone, but it's one that elicits a wide range of emotions. Still, the occasion needs to be celebrated! If you know someone special who is about to enter their fifth decade, why not take the time to plan an incredible and unforgettable shindig?

It's safe to say most guys are comfortable with turning a year older. Because of this, you may want to infuse the event with fun, humorous jokes. For instance, why not purchase a number of balloons with phrases such as "Over the Hill" or "Old Man" on them? Small details like this are bound to elicit scores of laughs from party attendees.

Women, of course, can be a bit more sensitive about the big 4-0. If this is the case, you'll want to find scores of birthday party favors that highlight her interests but keep her new age secret. Personalized candy wrappers are a fantastic idea, but try to emblazon them with images of the birthday lady as opposed to those terrifying two digits.

Throw a non-traditional baby shower

by

Baby showers can be stressful on all parties involved. Watching the expecting mother open gift after gift can get kinda dull, and as the mom-to-be you may not be so keen on being watched closely as you judge presents for a couple hours. Consider a low-key baby shower instead!

One popular choice is throwing a co-ed shindig. Serve drinks and hors d'oeuvres and you've got a nice little party to celebrate your pregnancy. Encourage your friends to skip the $800 strollers and ask for something simple like diapers, or even just the promise of a future babysitting session. An afternoon full of corny baby games with loved ones will keep everyone happy and preserve the celebratory sentiment of the occasion.

It can get a little uncomfortable having all eyes constantly fixed on you and your belly. Baby shower favors are a great way to let your friends know how much their presence is appreciated. It's a humble gesture that will go over really well.
