Isabel's Second 8th Birthday Party!!


A motley looking crew if there ever was one!!


The presents starts piling up!


We're all in our places with bright shiny faces!!


Making a wish and blowing out the candle!!

It's a pillow! It's a pet!  It's a Pillow Pet!!
A purple unicorn no less!!

A paint your own messenger bag, Tinkerbell jewelry kit and markers, a Princess Pen
and a Pink Princess Diary! 

Some of the decorations I put up! I LOVE these tassels! They're from one of my favorite stores - T.J. Maxx - from about a year ago. And the Pinata is from Hobby Lobby - another favorite store of mine! But Isabel and I agreed we wouldn't break it open because it's too pretty! So one of these days, when she's thoroughly sick of it, we might put candy in it and whack it open.  But not for now!


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Well, that's it for now!  Isabel is still getting presents in the mail from family all over the world, including her Mommy in Afghanistan!  It's a wonder she isn't a spoiled rotten miserable little monkey.  But she isn't, and that's what other people say, as well as me!  And I agree with them wholeheartedly!  Till later than!

Better Late Than Never!! (AKA: Isabel's 8th Birthday Parties!)

I've taken way too long to get back to this blog and so much has happened!!  So without further ado, here are photos from Isabel's 8th birthday parties!  Yes, there were two of them! One before my daughter Laura left for Afghanistan for a year and one on her birthday!  Here they are - from the 1st Birthday!


This is a Fairy Cake, with a water fall and 5 different fairies which are actually stamp pads!! 


Another view - from the back!  


Hey! This is my cake!!
