So our summer is always filled with birthday's. We've got Knox's which is the 14th of July, Paris 29th of July, Mine is the 13th of august and Blazers is the 14th of august.
So with that being said Paris usually gets ripped off on her birthday. I'm not a big party thrower at all. But this year was a very special year it was her 8th birthday, So this year i promised her a big bash (she was aloud to invited 5 Friends and 2 cousins, Huge i know Hehe).
Anyway i gave her a couple options for Party themes, She decided on a baking one. So we decided on Making little simple simple apron, with Bakers hat's. I had been down to Jo-anns fabrics the previous week so i picked up some cute pink fabric for not to much. I got the seam binding up here at Marshalls (they have lots of fun colors). And i got to work.
This was one of the easiest Projects, to do. I took me one morning and part of a afternoon to finish all 8 up. easy peasy. Oh and i used my Handy Dandy Sillhouette sd Machine and used the iron on heat transfer and did there names. I love my Handy Dandy Machine!
So for the activity they colored some heart boxes My mom had picked up at Ikea for super cheap, they colored them and put pretty tissue in them for there cakeballs to go home in. Then, when they were finished that we dipped cake balls.
I did some prep for the cake balls cause i know how 7-8 year olds are with crafts cooking yikes.
So i did all the prep work with the molds and cake ect. (This is the how to on cupcake cake balls. So So easy)
So that pretty much took all the time, then we ate cupcakes and opened Presents and that was it. Paris had a great time and claims that was her best party ever (she did not have much to compare to). So for there take home treat they got the aprons, hat's, a cute little bubble icecream cone (i picked up a target 3 for $2) and a jar of sprinkles that i picked up for $1.50 at the doller store. Awsome!!
