Happy Unbirthday to You!

Since our children are all blessed with summer birthdays I try to get some treats together for them to bring in sometime in the spring to celebrate their unbirthday (ever seen Alice in Wonderland?) So, Sean and I decided that robots were the way to go this year...
Here is Sean...very proud of Mummy's hard work!
Surveying the options ahead of time...they sure did choose carefully!
This was SO fun to watch! The teacher does a little show with the birthday child...I wish I had known that before...I might have shown up for every birthday!!!
The class with their control panels. Everyone made their very own robot control panel and wore it for the afternoon.
I sure do love Kindergarten!!!

Enjoy!

It's Birthday Time!

It's been quiet on the birthday front over here but Alicia has been waiting for sometime to celebrate her birthday in my workshop! We have had this one booked for ages...

Here is Alicia with her friends...these girls came all the way from Hamilton to celebrate in my workshop! They were full energy and excitement after the car ride here! (We are missing a few of the girls here...they were too shy to join in the photos...)
Alicia and her Mom planned a flower theme...it is quite popular around here. We based in on the cookies on sticks (another favourite!) and went from there. We also created monogrammed tags and clipboards along with toppers for their goodie bags. The papers all coordinate and looked great!
We hope you had a great time girls!

Happy Birthday Alicia!

Enjoy!

Popcorn anyone?

I want you to take an extra close look at this popcorn...cause it took me a long time to make! It wasn't just a matter of putting some corn in the air popper...these are marshmallows cut and glued together with icing.

This is the first bowl of popcorn that I can't finish!!!

So, rather than consume it, the popcorn was next adhered to mini-cupcakes...
And finally, I popped (pun totally intended) them into a popcorn box and took them to our fireworks. The kids loved them! They are small but a lot of work and a lot of fun!!!
For the adults, I made mint chocolate cupcakes with mint icing...but I think it was mostly the kids who ate them...do you know any kids that don't like cupcakes???
Sweet eh?

Enjoy!
