High School Graduation

Houston Graduation Party

Why the shark fruit salad?  Glad you asked.  The party featured a poolside movie featuring Jaws.  The graduate chose to do a pool/movie theme party and we just went with it.



The colors green, lime green, and white are part of her school colors and incorporated them into the candy bar.


A good friend and nieghbor brought over her containers and the color coordinating candies.


I supplied the movie candy and ice cream sundae toppings for our dessert.


The high school girls are referred to as Hockadaises, and I used daisies throughout the house.



Easy and very inexpensive backdrop for the candy table.

Pool Water=Lemonade with sour patch octopus
homemade cake (not perfect but made with love)
I completely forgot to do pictures of the outdoor "theater" and the food.







I hired a chef to prepare gourmet hot dogs, corn dogs, chicken sliders, popcorn and french fries.  Raves from our guest about the food.


  • Hot dog wrapped in bacon with tomatillo sauce
  • Venison Chili dog with pico de gallo and fresh jalapeƱos
  • French fries sprinkled with Truffle salt
  • Panko breaded chicken breast on home made rolls
