Well I think the party went pretty well and if I hadn’t been in my 9th month of pregnancy it would have been such an easy party! Most of the kids liked the Clone Wars movie and our boys of course loved seeing it a second time. We lucked out and got the theater with [...]
We have a lot of fun with the kids birthday parties and normally aren’t afraid to have 20 kids running around our house and yard. This year Ethan wanted a Star Wars party and while that opens a whole universe (har har) of options, Heather is 9 months pregnant so we decided to keep it [...]
For some unknown reason we had no internet yesterday and most of today so I couldn’t write about Ben and Jamie’s birthday party yesterday! Now its late and I’m just putting up some pictures of the fun! It was our Red, White & Blue themed party (sort of a 4th of July birthday party). I [...]
Jamie is 2 years old today! I can’t really believe it but just look at how big she has gotten. Here she is the day she was born. This is her first birthday. For breakfast we gave her a cinamon roll with a candle to start off the day since the boys woke up asking [...]
I am not super patriotic or anything but I thought it would be fun and gender neutral since its a party for a boy and a girl. So next Saturday we are having Ben’s 4th and Jamie’s 2nd Red, White & Blue Birthday Party. I’m keeping things simple and not going to go crazy so [...]
Ethan had 2 birthday parties to attend over the weekend! On Sat he went to a swimming party at the YMCA and Sun he went to a bowling party. It was a nice way to end the school year and celebrate with his friends. We definitely have to go back to bowl with John and [...]
I have been meaning to post about all of the kids birthday parties we’ve had over the years. I am currently planning a 4th of July party for Ben and Jamie since they are born in July and Ben will be 4 this year. Ethan is already planning his Star Wars party even though he [...]
I decided VERY last minute to make the Easter Bunny cupcakes this morning to bring to our playgroup Easter egg hunt. So they were rushed and not as cute as they usually are but the brown chocolate bunnies were CHOCOLATE so it was worth it to me! In real life they looked cuter than when [...]
I really like baking cookies and Ben likes things that are “double” so I often put the dough close together on the sheet so he can have “double cookies”. I made a triple cookie by accident one day and it gave me the idea to make cookies shaped like Mickey Mouse’s head/ears. I made chocolate [...]
I’ve noticed that my cake and cupcake posts are pretty popular so I am going to post about all the interesting ones I’ve made so far. This snake is not the best of my creations (and I got the idea from a book) but I had just had a baby 11 days before Ben turned [...]
