Beth & Trisha are sisters & co-founders of this lovely blog!  They are Children's Party experts!  This is how they describe their blog: "Jolee comes from combining our middle names (Jolene and Bree).  Later we found that it’s also a word in the online Urban Dictionary.  It means a girl who’s beautiful inside and out.  That’s what we would like to strive for and we’d love it if others shared in our journey"
