For us it's a total toss up between making handmade touches to add to our party decor and baking until our ovens are ready to explode. Both put us in full out stress party-palooza mode and make us more giddy than a kid on Christmas eve. But we know that's not the same for everyone, chime in with your favorite part about throwing a bash in our survey below.

My favorite part is assembling the party favors. I love coming up with a cool container and filling it with really unique stuff that goes with our theme. And I do love a theme! Past themes of ours: robots, knights, blue mice, bugs, legos, camping, , cats and dogs, bunnies. Also making the invitations. I love the planning part immensely.

I make the invitations, too. That's my favorite part. Each kid has a little scrap book with a page for each invitation and a pic from the party. They love to look through and remember all the themes. For my son we've done: jack-in-the-box, primary colors, dinosaurs, baseball, splish splash, international flags, Beijing Olympics, and peleton. For my daughter it's been cupcakes, bubbles and butterflies, and owls.
