3rd Super Hero Birthday Party

So secretly I love to plan parties. I got the bug when not "planning" my baby shower, LoL. For his 3rd birthday I  knew wanted a candy buffett, and started to collect accordingly.

It rained the day of and before his party, so all of the plans i had, had to be trown out the window, and we had the party inside not fun.

The birthday boy, can you see how short his hair was?

For food we had we had

• Chicken Enchilades
• Spanish Rice
• Refried Beans
• 7 Layer Dip
•  Fruit and Veggie Platter
• Chips and Dip
• and hot dog for the kids

For drinks we had

• Water
• Lemon Ice Tea
• a tropical drink mix
•  Hot Chocolate with pepermint, marshmallows and whip cream

last minute centerpieces. So easy to make and soooo cute. I got  the idea from an episode of 20 kids and counting with The Duggar Family. Its just a roll

of tissue and wrapped in tissue paper. and I used super hero cutouts, to decorate like confetti.

Activities

the boys played basketball, and you can see Tye in the mixed

We pulled Tye's jmper into  the garage, oh and that's my little cousin Dae

 the kids where about to decorate Mask that I got from Oriental Trading Company, and Capes that   I made

Sad to say, that the big kids enjoyed them even more than the younger ones, lol.

 some of the adults, where in the backyard around the barbeque pit trying to stay warm.

The tables

the party favor and gift table

 to prepare for the Candy Buffet, I started going to trift shops to find apothecary jars, and i scored, at most, the  I spent no more 6 stores, and the rest I either got at Wal- Mart or Ross Dress for Less.

the candy I got at at Sams Club, Winco and Costco I got hard candies, and some other stuff, after halloween on clearance, and stuff it in the deep freezer :o)

even the adults loved it.

5th Birthday Candyland Party

Yes another post that has nothing to do with hair... My other love Parties... I am nowhere near a proffessional, but i love them I hope you enjoy and maybe get inspired

A couple of weeks ago we celebrated my niece/ God Duagther's 5th Birthday Party. We had many things planned that didn't get done but its okay we still had a blast, even though we had to find a place to hold the party after the venue cancelled 3 days before the party. We ended up having it on the side of the house and didn't use half of the decorations we made. Below is a couple of Pictures, Most taken by new and my new camera.....



The invitation, we got froma love lady on Etsy.  You can find her store here, she has lots of goodies in her store and has really good prices.

This is the Tutu I made her. I wish I would have been able to make it a little bit longer, but oh well.

Wondering about the Bow? Well my Lovely Friend over at Bow-Issa, made it. Special order, and i must say I was very pleased.

and she also made these to go on her shoes. totally matched the invitations and her tutu, to a T.

Well I guess this small section could be about hair. This was my nieces first time getting her hair Pressed. We washed, detangled and blow dried her hair. ( her mommy learned it was better to wash and detangle in sections :o)), and procced to press it. In the morning I freshened up the edges and did a loose french braid across the top and attached with a Bow. This is the same style also used on this post

A Couple of more pictures of the Birthday Girl. All photos taken by me... :o)
