My Birthday!

No decorations, no cake baking,

no party, no stress.

Just wanted to save a few photos. :)

Bentley's 8th Birthday Party

Bentley wanted a Bakugan Party like Maxwell's,

so we used the same invitation design,

and basic party idea,

but didn't attempt a tournament.

Mikey helped me hang the streamers, which was

awesome! I didn't have to climb off and on chairs,

and it went a lot faster.

First, Bentley wanted vanilla cupcakes
with green chocolate frosting.
Then, he wanted green strawberry cupcakes
with chocolate frosting.
He settled on green vanilla cupcakes
with chocolate frosting.

The party favors were once again,
one Bakugan and two cards per guest.

We put a different guy (Shun) on the bags
because he's Bentley's favorite.

He chose a sparkling "8" candle for his cupcake.

Happy Birthday Bentley!

*note to self - rootbeer and 7/8 year olds is a bad combination

Bandana Skirt #1

Mindy found some cute bandanas in her little town.

I used one of them today to make a skirt for Ruby,

inspired by this tutorial on V and Co.
