The Sweetest Treats for your First Communion, Mother's Day, & Graduation Parties!

That's a wrap on Easter! And, now we turn to spring party planning! First communions, Mother's Day and graduation parties will be here in a flash! If you are like me and a gazillion other busy moms, you'll turn to Pinterest and Etsy for party ideas, quick hacks, and super cute treats.

I must admit I dream of being crafty and wish I could pull off so many of the very clever and very cute ideas on Pinterest. Yet, often my attempts end up with a #momfail. I love a good party though and keep trying.

I have though mastered ordering very cute cookies as desserts and for party favors from Etsy. From Doc McStuffins to Paw Patrol to Minions, I have loved the cookies I have ordered over the years. I must confess that I often stress out a few days before the parties in fear that my cookie delivery will not arrive on time. It always does and the cookies are always great.

My friend Kerry recently gave me a sweet party connection and I no longer have to worry about on-time deliveries! Kerry shared Elizabeth's Sweeties Facebook page and told me how she has ordered great sweet treats from Elizabeth. I decided to try out Elizabeth's so cute "peeps" bunny cookies for Easter!

The above pictures are my orders from Easter! As you can see, Elizabeth's "peeps" cookies are darling! And, they taste delicious! The cookies were a big hit at our family Easter celebrations! She lives near us in Chicago in the Edison Park neighborhood. I took my sweet 6 year-old twins, Stella and Sophia with me to pick up the cookies. I love the idea of supporting local businesses and loved the pictures of all the amazing cookies on Elizabeth's Facebook page. So, when we went to pickup our cookies I asked if I could take a few pictures of her orders so I could write a post about her. Elizabeth was a bit surprised and I hope I didn't sound crazy. Her so nice friend was encouraging and all their kids were racing around. I couldn't coax in Sophia and Stella inside and they were giggling on the porch as a toddler was trying to make a break for the outside. I snapped some great pics and then asked Elizabeth if I could take a picture of her too! Her friend helped me persuade her to take a pic and I was so glad.
As we often say on our blog, life is messy and you find the joy in it all. I knew we were a hot mess at our house getting ready to host our family for Easter. Elizabeth and her friend had their kids running around and were getting ready for their own holidays. Yet, Elizabeth carved out time to make some gorgeous treats to help others celebrate in a special way. When I wanted to take her picture she said her hair was a mess and threw on a baseball hat. She looked darling and was clearly finding joy in it all. Her sweet cookies are so joyful too!

I'm so glad we ordered from Elizabeth for our Easter celebrations and know we will order from her again. So, if you are planning a First Communion party, a Mother's Day celebration, or are having graduation parties I hope you order from Elizabeth's Sweeties! And, of course you can order for showers, weddings, birthday parties, and so many other events. This is an awesome way to support a great local business and entrepreneurial mom! You will have some delicious, special treats for your party and I know your family and friends will love it!

Check out Elizabeth's gorgeous cookies, cute cupcakes and cake balls on the Elizabeth's Sweeties Facebook page! When you order, tell Elizabeth the Messy Mommies said hi!

Enjoy your cookies!
