Party Time

A great friend of mine has a daughter who will be turning one this summer. She wants to make a banner for her birthday party and asked if I can help make it (well, she asked if I could cut it all out on my cricut and I told her how about she comes over and does it herself. She liked the idea of that!) Then it got me thinking and researching cute banners for ideas and inspiration. Whoa was I blown away with the amazing creativity from people online who pull all the stops for their childs 1^st birthday! Seeing all that made me send a bbm to N to ask if I can plan my nephew J’s 6^th birthday next year! (She knows I msg her with random stuff all the time so she shouldn’t be all that surprised!)

I’m visioning boy banners, cars, red and blue colours, candy bar that makes the kids squeal with joy, balloons and loads of DIY! I hope she agrees to it! HA! If she ever provides me with a niece then I am DEFINITELY planning her 1^st (and/or 2^nd birthday parties! The ideas I have swirling around in my head for girls is CRAZY awesome!!)

Project clean up basement will be underway soon. It really needs a good clean (not dirty – just things are way out of place!) so it’ll be nice to have that organization again and to have things in their right spots again! I really need to organize all my hobbies (baking/paper crafts/chocolates/etc) larger kitchen appliances (deep fryer, George Foreman etc) all my favourite appetizer stuff (omg I have an addiction!) in addition to the holiday décor we have stored away (Halloween & xmas). Ideally, one day I’d like to go through my old clothes as well (and shoes and purses) and just chuck them all (well Good will it but you know what I mean!) It’s been sitting in the basement since we moved in 3+ years ago and my weight changes  often so the likelihood of me being able to fit into those clothes AND want to wear them again are slim to none. Goodbye!  And it’ll make it that much easier when we do go to finish the basement then it’ll just have that much less stuff in it! (I am excited for when the basement is being worked on because I will be transforming my craft room at the same time!!! Eeeek the guest bedroom will be mine and I have awesome visons for that! Min 2 years away from that dream!)

Anyhoo, enough of that for now.

Until next time, taa taa
