Parties and Pinterest

I'm in birthday party planning mode! Parties for little boys are a different kind of special. You get to use your creative brain to think outside the box especially when it's the 7th birthday and you've done the normal "kid" birthday themes. I've consulted Pinterest with little results. Maybe I'm not using the correct terms for searching, who knows. Any who, this year's party theme came to me while sitting on the deck watching Hayden and Codey (neighbor) playing in the backyard. Ding! Ding! Ding! I'm a little embarrassed it took me this long to realize that I just need to base the party around what he likes to do the most - Nerf guns, chasing, shooting, pretending to be in combat!

With this in mind, I went back to Pinterest to get some ideas for the execution of said party. While there, I came across some super cute things for the party and some super cute "just because" things. I'm holding out on sharing those things until his birthday so instead, I'm going to share some things that make me happy.

Since his birthday is on Mother's Day this year, this might be a fun surprise.

Obstacle course

Japanese Washi Tape
Cupcake Liners
Drake - The Motto
Something I'm trying to be better at doing.
Essie Geranium - THE perfect red nail polish for spring/summer. I can't stop looking at my nails :)

What fun or ridiculous things make you happy?
