It's Sunday evening on the final day of our April vacation. I was determined to get back on track with blogging, but the week flew by and here I am finally getting to at least one post.
A few months ago, Little Miss and I were in the car and she said,
"Mom, I think I decided what kind of birthday party I want to have."
"Great! What did you decide?"
"Iron Man".
I was surprised by her choice, but I was also quite confident that she would not change her mind because she is confident with her ideas. So, the planning began.
Coincidentally, I had a picture I had taken last summer at her cousin's birthday party. It fit in perfectly with her chosen theme.
I enjoy the party prepping, basically because it gives me excuses to get crafty and be creative. I bought these bags at The Christmas Tree Shop and they were on clearance for 2/$1.00. My aunt made the Iron Man vinyl pieces and put those on for me. I wrote each child's name with a Sharpie and the bags were used for loot bags for the Pinata.
Little Miss had a sick day, so when she started feeling better, we made these bottle cap magnets. We forgot to pass them out at the party, so we have a lot left.
We threw a Princess dress cupcake cake into the mix, but it had Iron Man jewels of course.
My talented aunt made Little Miss a custom designed shirt too.
Our Little Miss was very excited
to celebrate 8!
