Birthday Girl and other randomness...

BIRTHDAY GIRL!!
Last week Tayler turned the big '06'!! She had a great day! It started by opening her Unicorn Pillow Pet on Wednesday night (since Daddy wasn't able to be here for her birthday breakfast and present opening). She has been waiting forEVER for her Pillow Pet :) Then, off to school and after Domino's Pizza for Lunch, she had her two friends come over for her Birthday Tea Party. She got her first very own tea cup and saucer for her birthday as well (pictured). Tayler had a delightful day and was completely worn out by the time her friends went home. Not even a phone call would perk her up. :)

VALENTINE'S CARDS!!
So, I was flipping through a magazine and discovered some cute Valentine's Day Cards that some women make each year and it got me to thinking: 'Hmmm...I am bored with going to the store and picking out a box of Valentine's Day Cards for the kids and that's it'. So, I went to a favorite store of mine, picked up some fun paper and cut the material out and the kids had so much fun making their own Valentine's Day Card Bookmarks to bring to school. I wasn't sure how they would like it, but I knew I was excited. Well...they LOVED it! They asked if we can do this every year and that it's so much funner than the box of cards. :) The other 'bonus' was that it kept them busy and crafty for their morning of their day off of school due to the Holiday. :)
