Dirty Dancing Outdoor Movie Night Party

Outdoor movie night with Dirty DancingFirst we are going to just excuse the poor quality of these photos.  Sometimes in life you have to just enjoy yourself and not try to make everything “blog pretty.”  Such was the case when my friend Carole and I decided that we needed to have a small get together to watch Dirty Dancing on her outdoor movie screen.  This was not a party for my blog, this was friend's hanging out.  So I left my camera at home and just went to have fun.  BUT, I had to share some of the treats from the party because they were rad.  Previously we had watched boxing on the outdoor screen on chairs and chaise lounges but for this movie, we decided to watch it from the hot tub.  THE BEST!  It was a gorgeous night with good gals and one of the best movies of all times!

Dirty Dancing themed party treatsIt was a really busy week and I didn't have a ton of time to get crazy with themed treats for the party but I decided to make rice krispy treats.  And I totally put baby in the corner.  These paired really nicely with the watermelon mojitos Carole made (remember when they carry watermelons across the bridge to the employee club?).

Dirty Dancing Themed Party TreatsDude.  Kristin from Meringue Bake Shop came and KILLED it with these treats.  Hungry Peach P'eyes!!!!  One look at these and I can disguise…For real.  These were SO good!  They were boozy and delicious.

Then just yesterday I watched Trisha's Southern Kitchen and she and a few friends had a Steel Magnolia's themed movie watching party.  Complete with a red velvet cake with an armadillo on top.

Movie themed parties are the best!  Have you ever had one?  This was my first, but won't be my last!

I feel like we won Christmas this year. This is the earliest we've gotten our tree and now our house is full of holiday magic.🎄 ⠀ @chevrolet loaned us a Silverado for the week so we could go have a Christmas family adventure. We visited our first cut-your-own tree farm and I'm sharing where you can visit in LA and OC!🎄 Plus, find my tips for how to get your Christmas tree home. Whether you cut your own or get one from a lot, there are a few things you need to do!🎄 We truly loved getting to know the 2019 Silverado. Head to the blog to find out why, grab the list of tree farms and find out how to safely bring that tree home! Use the link in my bio! 🎄

I didn’t know I was a truck girl. But I’m totally a truck girl. @chevrolet loaned us a 2019 Silverado for the week and my whole family is in love. It takes forever to get anywhere though. Every time we park the boys take a few minutes to exert their dominance over the parking lot (see my stories). The Silverado is going on all of our Christmas lists. 🙌🏻🎄🙏 #Silverado #chevrolet #chevroletsilverado

Need a family activity to do while you wait for the turkey? Interview your family! sponsored ⠀ A few months ago I headed to the @gpneighborhoods to interview my best friend with @storiesfromtheoc and @storycorps. The conversation is archived in the Library of Congress. And now you can record interviews with the Story Corps app from your own home! It's the perfect Thanksgiving activity! You can talk about any topic you want but I love the idea of talking about how family traditions got started. Use the links in my bio to find the Story Corps app and hear my recording! #StoriesFromtheOC #StoryCorps
