Aeysha Curry can add another title to her already impressive rsum: party plannerextraordinaire!

The celebrity chef, author, mother of two and wife to NBA star Stephen Curry showed off the most adorable birthday party for her daughter. Riley Curry, the oldest daughter of Aeysha and Stephen, just turned five years old on Wednesday and what better way to celebrate than with a Unicorn-themed tea party.

The birthday theme has been a fan favorite for celebs in Hollywood. Earlier this month, Tori Spelling threw a unicorn-themed birthday party for her daughter Stella.

Aeysha took to her Instagram story Wednesday to give us an inside look at the dreamy birthday bash.

Family and friends gathered for the festivities in the Curry's backyard which was decked out in pastel-colored decorations.

Steph might have all the attention on the court but all eyes were on the NBA's most adorable scene-stealer. Riley rocked a fluffy pink toto with a dazzling princess crown along with her younger sister Ryan who showed off her sassy unicorn headband.

In addition to the princess castle bouncy house and a golden balloon arch spelling out "Happy Birthday Riley," the real showstopper was the birthday cake. The magical two-tiered cake with flowers and a unicorn horn was almost too darling to cut.

Steph took to Instagram with a touching message for his daughter's birthday: "5 years ago you changed our world! Couldn't have imagined a more ferocious, creative, confident, joyous, caring and spontaneous little girl to call my daughter. Love everything about you! And even though daddy still struggles to do your hair, the responsibility as your father stays front and center for me every single day!"

From Texas Standard:

At the height of the Cold War during the late 1950s, a conservative fringe group, created by some of America's richest businessmen gathered with a lofty mission in mind: to eliminate the so-called "Communist conspiracy" they believed gripped the country, and to preserve the foundation of the Constitution and the nation'sChristian roots.

At its peak, the John Birch Society had some 100,000 dues-paying members who were focused on quashing communism and promoting small government. But as the Cold War faded, so did the organization.

Today, however, a Birch Society revival is underway, andTexas is at the epicenter.

Freelance reporterJohn Savagesrecent Politico article,The John Birch Society Is Back,explains how the group developed its stronghold in Texas. Savage says todays organization has some valid concerns but also leans toward conspiracy theories not much different than it was nearly 60 years ago.

They really tapped into anti-illegal immigration, they say, anti-globalism, anti-big-government passion. Those main core principles are still their main core principles, he says.

ALBUQUERQUE The Albuquerque Tea Party has been granted tax-exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service after applying eight years ago.

Graham Bartlett, president of the local Tea Party, said he was informed about a month ago that the groups request was going through, the Albuquerque Journal reported.

The Albuquerque Tea Party requested tax-exempt status because it relies on donations, and people tend to donate more when they know they can write it off on their taxes, Bartlett said.

The group filed its request in December 2009. Several months later, the IRS demanded more documentation concerning the organizations activities. The group complied, and then the IRS requested even more documentation. The Tea Party provided more than 1,000 pages of documentation about the groups activities.

What I understand is the IRS was targeting any organization that had the name Tea Party in it or the word conservative, Bartlett said. We werent the only ones.

In 2012, the American Center for Law and Justice filed a lawsuit against the IRS on behalf of the Albuquerque Tea Party as well as other conservative groups whose requests for tax-exempt status seemed to be put on hold during the Obama administration. In 2015, a bipartisan review from the U.S. Senates Finance Committee found management flaws at the IRS contributed to a dysfunctional culture that allowed agents to mistreat conservative groups when they applied for tax-exempt status.

Both Bartlett and Moore said that since President Donald Trump and the Republicans assumed power in Washington in January, there seems to have been a change in policy and tone at the IRS.

Some of us will be taxed without benefit under this new road tax proposal. Many of the homeowners in Green Valley have private streets that we maintain from homeowner dues. In our case, the per-resident cost is $70 each year for preventive maintenance and $230 each year for future replacement.

Many residential areas have county streets that are maintained by the county. Now we have the increased taxation for county streets. These neighborhoods have not, in general, been paying for their street maintenance in addition to road taxes as some of us have.

Will the Board of Supervisors consider spreading the increased tax revenue for road maintenance by formula around to HOAs who are funding their own roads? While it may not be the new American way, it does seem fair that all those who are taxed receive the benefits of taxation.
