Superhero Party!

Up up and away! this is my first paid boy party. I bought 8 superhero capes and made about 8 more myself out of costume satin. I bought royal blue fabric to make the bottom table cloth that covered the table all the way to the floor. I bought red satin to make a table cloth that goes on top of the blue table cloth. To decorate the table I dressed 2 bears in superhero costumes. One was dressed as spiderman and the other was superman. I painted wood frames royal blue and put them on the table for the boys to decorate them with stars and planets.

We played keep the kryptonite up in the air and then the game musical chairs. while they played games I would pull each child out to pose for a photo to put in their frame. We then ate cake and cookies. The cookies were made by my cake lady Jennifer. http://mycakesandmore.bravehost.com/ I asked for them to look just like the superman logo, but instead of an "S" in the middle we put the child's initial "M". Party was an hour and a half and a lot of fun.

Summer Fun 2010!

Well I have a lot of catching up! Summer has been fun and productive. I need to get in a better habit of posting on a regular basis. I have some wonderful parties to write about, cleaning projects to brag about and summer fun to continue to enjoy.



My son had a "Star Wars" party. It was great if I should say so my self. I did get all of my ideas from several other blogs so thank you bloggers! My cake lady Jennifer of http://mycakesandmore.bravehost.com/ made me to best R2D2 cake!
An idea I got from another blogger was to make light sabers from pool noodles

We started out making the light sabers then moved on to decorating a construction paper frame. We then ate pizza and cake. All of that took about an hour. The boys spent the last hour running outside and wacking each other with the light sabers. We came in and opened gifts. After opening gifts I had the boys get together for a group photo to put in the frame they decorated and the boys went home. Fun fun fun!



The party favors were the photo, light saber, and a goody bag that had slim jim, cheese stick, balloons, poppers, sticky hand. I am not a big fan of huge bags of candy and little toys that just fall apart. I was very happy with the whole thing.
