Our week could’ve started and ended with this dinner. It was such a highlight, we met so many wonderful people, and celebrated an exciting new chapter with our dear friends at Cricut. Here’s a peek at our dinner with Cricut at Caffe Molise in Salt Lake City. (Try the Brown Butter Butternut Squash Ravioli, whoa.) Huge thank you to the amazing Becky Kimball for taking all these beautiful photos! You can catch all the festivities and how everyone has been using the Explore on their #explorecricut hash tag. The table, with a gorgeous garland by Lizy’s Lilies. The menus were … Read more

land of nod trunk show
Last week we had the amazing opportunity of co-hosting a nationwide trunk show for Land of Nod with our friend and Interior Designer, Kirsten of 6th Street Design School! Eight parties in eight other cities took place the very same evening, and we loved being able to participate and create our own party at The Awful Waffle. Land of Nod has treated us so well this last year and we were beyond grateful to work them in person this time! Would you care to see some of our photographer Lindsey Orton’s pictures of the night? Don’t be too sad if you … Read more

happy first birthday, small fry!
We can hardly believe this weekend marks our one year anniversary here at Small Fry! Are you guys ready for a party? We’ve got one in store for the next week! We had Small Fry as a goal for a month or so before we launched, and didn’t tell a soul. Each of us spent hours toiling over every last detail, details that you’ll see on our very first post, to our very last, every feature, every button, every element, concept, and idea was crafted with care. It was this same time of night (or early morning) that we hit “send” … Read more
a backyard BBQ birthday
We have a love for first birthday parties, and today we are featuring a very special one by Erin Wakeman for her little girl Zoey. Here’s what Erin had to say about their special day: When the time comes for your first baby’s first birthday, you pull out all the stops! I wanted to give Zoey a birthday party that felt like a big celebration of her sweet and colorful personality while capturing the essence of a perfect end of the summer backyard BBQ. We filled the trees with balloons, banners and pennant buntings creating a backdrop of bright and bold colors. … Read more
happy labor day!
It is such a bittersweet moment to say a final farewell to Summer this year. While we love the return of schedule and routine (and actually knowing what day it is!) the magic of Summer will be sorely missed. We know we fought the good fight and gave Summer all we had this year. With family vacations, weekend adventures, hiking, biking, swimming, splashing, concerts in the park, fireworks in the street, bubbles, chalk, sprinklers and sandy feet. Eating berries straight off the vine, and peaches off the tree, we played and laughed until we collapsed into our beds ready to … Read more
Little Fish Party
It’s crazy to think that Jude’s Peach Picking First Birthday party was already a year ago! Jude is a little water baby to say the least, so Jenna went with a poolside fish theme and it was darling! First, she started with this invite via Tiny Prints: She used bright orange and different hues of blue throughout for a bright Summery feel. For the adults she had a few types of sushi, salted edamame, “shell” pasta salad, fruit and beverages. For the littlest guests she created a “Goldfish Bar” with a few types of Goldfish Crackers: And she even made kid’s sushi! … Read more

sleepover party DIY
We had a conversation about sleepovers the other day, and being friends since our early teenage years, things got nostalgic real fast. Jenna’s parents rarely allowed a sleepover, she can count on one hand how many times she had one as a kid. Her homework had to be all done, her parents had to know their parents, she had to come home by Saturday afternoon and never on a Sunday. Nicole, was the Sleepover Queen, but only if it was at her house. If she had to sleep at someone else’s home she always ended up calling her mom to … Read more
