For Alison's 7th Birthday this year we went with a lemonade themed party. I got this idea from a great party blog here. I made homemade lemonade, and a pink lemonade cake- yum! The girls loved drinking out of mason jars with fabric swatches tied around them. I had a lot of fun putting this together.
The girls all painted a craft during the party.
A little game of horse-shoes.
This little bench has been on the to-do list for a long time. I've wanted to recover it and paint it white for awhile. I wish I had a before- shot, but since I don't you can just enjoy how it goes with the flow of our room now. Thanks to Grandma Muriel for giving us this beautiful antique bench.
Our friends the Burgraffs put on a great show for the fourth of July.
Lilly loved the sound of the fireworks. She kept covering up her mouth and squealing with delight.
All the girls loved the show too while trying to stay hydrated. Oh- the heat!
For two weeks my friend Elinn and I put on an Art Camp for our children and a group of their friends. They did all sorts of projects and at the end of class they could help make an artistic edible snack. Here, they all helped make dirt cups with worms (pudding, crushed-up oreos, gummy worms). Elinn and I had a great time putting this together and everyone had fun.
