Jacob's 2nd Birthday PARTY!

Ok so I have been talking about Jacob's 2nd Birthday FOREVER! Well let me just say it was AWESOME, PERFECT, and FUN! Jacob really enjoyed his time with his friends and of course his cake. That little boy really loves cake! We had a rough start to all the fun because on his actual birthday he was one sick little boy. Thank goodness by his party he was ready to play.

                                                     Some of our fantastic little friends!

                                                          Brand new baby London!

                                                         

 This is Eli, Jacob's buddy who he use to go to daycare with and the son of our fantastic photographer! When Arick would pick Jacob up from daycare he and Eli would race to Arick asking or I guess motioning for the upside down trick, so Arick decided to do it for ol' time sake. :)

 I wish I would of gotten more pictures of all the guest, but we were so happy you all came out to celebrate with us! Jacob truely enjoyed playing with everyone. THANK YOU!

Jacob's 2 year pictures!

Our little boy turned two in December and we first celebrated by having his pictures taken by Krista Roder Photography only this time our great friend Nicole took the pictures.  She did a fantastic job and in my opinion a fantastic addition to Krista Roder Photography! http://www.kristaroderphotography.com/

Enjoy!

Jacob Turned 2!

I know I am totally skipping Christmas and I promise to back pedal and get to it, but this past weekend was Jacob's 2nd Birthday party and boy oh boy did he have fun! The Sesame St. theme was awesome and everyone seemed to really like the cakes I made and the decorations I put up. I owe a huge THANK YOU to my friend Nicole for helping me with some of the details. She made these amazing invites

            And then also put together these signs for me to put next to some of the food we had out!

(a.k.a. SunFlower seeds!)

                                                            More party details to come!

Modge Podge

Pretty much my new favorite thing to do EVER! I want to use my modge podge on everything, and I can't stop.
I have been thinking of how I can incorporate the letter J and the number 2 into my son Jacob's 2nd Sesame Street Birthay Party, and after reading Jessica's blog over at Craftily Ever After it came to me!
Last night I made the cutest custom letter and number using modge podge and my 2nd favorite supply, paint.
I have had these cardboard letter and number sitting around forever as well as the Sesame St. decals, paint and wrapping paper. I just love how it all turned out, and now I can't stop thinking about what else I can use this modge podge on.
Take a look, and let me know what you think or if you are inspired to get crazy with modge podge!

              Look how cute these guys are! The picture does not show it well but they actually have fur on them.

                                          These are going to be perfect on Jacob's cake table!
