Sneak Peak
If my whole family wasn’t coming to town (ACK) for Baby Evan’s first birthday, I would be a posting fool about all the decorations, games, crafts and fun I’ve been buying and making for the party. Some of it is just so damn cute I can barely stop myself. But as my friend Sarah is always saying, it’s important to make wise choices. Of course, Sarah is usually talking to her 2 year old, but it’s still an important concept. Like for example, when Baby Evan chooses to eat mulch and Sarah’s daughter gets very concerned that “Baby Eban not make wise choice” even thought she TOLD him to stop eating that mulch! Of course, the wise choice in that situation would actually be for”Baby Eban’s” mother to stop her child from eating the dirty mulch on the playground, but Baby Eban’s mother is still working on remembering these things. Like I said, I’m trying to make wise choices so I’m starting with NOT posting every detail of the birthday party before anyone even gets her so they can all oooooh and aaaaaah over my skillz and talent. Plus I’m counting on that party to give me at least four days worth of posts (I know you’re SO excited) so I can give my brain a little break while it recovers from an influx of house guests and company.
So my wise choice for today is to give you just a sneak peak of some of the stuff I’ve found so far:
Dollar Store, 3 for $1
That container used to hold Boy Scout popcorn (if you don't know what that is you clearly your family is not as BLESSED with Eagle Scouts as mine is)
From Celebration Express online
Dollar Store
I was like “Sara????Wise choices??? Really!?!?” but then I realized that you were not talking about Sara B :)
And then I realized that it probably wasn’t a good idea to put peoples’ last names in the interwebs. You could fix that right? and make it say “the Sara that I was thinking of” or something like that…..???
By the way, these pictures are great! Love the new camera!! :) It’s all very exciting, this first birthday stuff!!!
Hey. I make plenty of wise choices. I went to the gym this morning. I didn’t get drunk last night. I stopped dating Mormons. And I rarely ever eat playground mulch. See? Wise choices.
Wise choices that are 10 years old do not count. I’ll give you credit for the gym though. :)
Oh, man, clearly we are making poor choices, since we can’t come to Baby Eban’s party! I think Josie’s fine with being in charge of monitoring Evan’s mulch intake, so feel free to focus on party plans! :)
I love everything!! YOu are dong such a great job and I am sure the party will be amazing. I can’t wait to see the photos! :)
