Again – I apologize for the iphone photos. We were still unpacking into the new house we moved into. But again- never will we miss a chance to party Mardi Gras was alot of fun. We got to teach our kids what it meant and what Fat Tuesday is. We also got to try some…
I must apologize for the terrible photos. We had just moved into a new house just the week before and hadn’t unpacked our good camera much less the rest of the house. However that never stops us from celebrating. So if you can look past the yuck photography of my iphone- I would love to…
We changed things up a little bit from last year. It wouldn’t be fun to do it exactly as last year. (FOUND HERE) Will start with the dinner. - Green Eggs & Smoked/Cooked Ham – Lorax Grits (yes I made that up but its yellow/cheese grits), Cat in the Hat fruit skewers. Decorations were easy–…
Today is Dr. Seuss birthday We always celebrate and my daughter insisted she dress up for the occasion for school. She was super excited. Tonight we will have our festive dinner and celebration. I am also the room mom I will be delivering some fun “Thing 1 & Thing 2″ cupcakes to her…
Last and final post. This post will cover the GAME/ACTIVITY portion of the banquet. Mentioned before in previous posts- we stacked up moving boxes for the game. We used 10 dodge balls. 5 green 5 red. We found them cheaply at Walmart. We use dodgeball all the time for scouts so they will be used…
Any excuse to dress up the table and have a fancier/funner (is that a word?) dinner– I am all on it! I love my Silhouette machine. I use it all the time to cut out things in a snap. For this dinner I used it for the Frog Bags, Lily Pads & Flower place mat…
My daughter is going to take this fun little gift to her classmates. Nothing over the top- but something to celebrate the day. After all it only happens every 4 years I got a bag of 8 frogs for 1.00 at my local dollar store Bagged them up added a cute topper on it Ready…
Decorations were the easiest at this banquet. Since we had just moved 3 weeks prior to this event- I needed this to be a VERY simple event. However, it turned out to be one of our best ones yet. Even better! Lots and Lots of moving boxes came in handy Stacked them up high, and…
This year I wanted to plan something fun for the boys. So I did. I love the angry birds and was even more exited when they came to facebook. I don’t play any other game but that. My “ME” thing as a mom. Of course it’s the perfect theme for Cub Scouts and families. But–…
Dr. Seuss birthday is coming up March 2nd. I thought I would share what we did last year. To inspire any of our readers. We will do another fun dinner too again this year. Decorations on the table…. Dinner we had Green Eggs & Ham, and Cat in the Hat style Pancakes (I don’t make…
My family loves this dish. In fact we had it for Christmas but it is perfect for Valentine’s Day dinner or Easter. The color is so pretty and vibrant. It comes out looking a red/pink color. Its official name is Cheese Salad– but in my entire family we call it Pink Stuff. If we called…
I apologize for the lateness of this post. The holidays really came so quickly and was hard to keep up. But better late than never right? Using pretty straw/raffia filler from Micheals Crafts. We filled plastic ornaments with it. Our little tree — just branches stuck into a french bucket filled with rocks. And our…
I got these great Kraft Gable boxes over the Black Friday weekend. They were on sale and free shipping. I got them from Whispering Pines. I used my Silhouette machine and cut out the letters of the last name of the recipient. Glued it on. Then I used a Martha Stewart punch – Snowflake Punch…
I have this LARGE box of Gumballs from Sam’s club. I need to use up. Seriously there is over 800+ pieces in the box. I wanted to make snowmen out of some of the white ones and played around with ideas till I found this one was the best route. I wanted something FAST,…
Another favorite piece I painted years ago. When I used to have alot more time on my hands. I used to love to use my scroll saw (poor thing is collecting dirt) I cut out this little guy, sanded him, put holes where I wanted to tie wire and painted him. The little light bulbs…
