Birthday Tradition and Party

One of our favorite Birthday traditions is to decorate the kid's bedroom with balloons and streamers while they are sleeping. My kids always love waking up to a decorated room on their special day.

Happy Birthday Caity !!!!!





This weekend we had a Luau Birthday party sleepover.


We had Caity's favorite ice cream sundae birthday cake. Yummy !!!!
Here is the recipe.


We painted these wood pieces.



There was also a water balloon fight. I filled 100 ballons. And they loved every minute of it.


Had a pinata.


And a lot of great kids in my house.

How fun! My kids would love to wake up to a room full of balloons; I may have to steal that idea.

Happy Birthday to her. I am sure one day she will look back and her memory bank will be full with wonderful memories like this one! Looks like a great party. I am a big fan of the decorating while sleeping thing! Love it!

Love the painted wood idea. Very fun. We had a birthday at our house today too. Although ours was filled with dirt cake and worms. :)

I love the birthday tradition of waking up to balloons & streamers. As a child, my mom would write a message on toilet paper and tape it across the doorway. You had to either limbo under it or break it to cross. I think the first time was a fluke, everyone loved it & a tradition was born!

Super Easy Volcanos

Image
I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

Image
This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute. You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock). Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top. Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves. Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll. Slide tree top into those slits.

Father's Day Card

If you Dad is into fishing I think this would be a great Father's Day Card for the kids to make. We used: Fish Coloring Page , tissue paper or crepe paper (cut up into sqares), glue, construction paper, wiggly eye, and a marker. Glue on pieces of the tissue paper and eye to the coloring page. Cut out the fish pattern. Glue on to folded construction paper. Write," Fishing You a Happy Father's Day !!!!" Cheyanne made one for her daddy and one for God.
