It's birthday party time at our house. We've celebrated Laura's 8th birthday with an art party with 8 wild girls. We painted an ice cream cone on canvas and I was doing my best to channel my inner Bob Ross, but he never showed. The masterpieces were definitely unique and it amazes me how different they all turned out despite receiving the same instructions.
Laura was very specific this year about the cake so we watched some you-tube videos and bought the frosting from Hy-Vee's bakery. I'm pretty sure the girl in the bakery pulled a "Heidi" as I got a boat load of butter cream frosting for $3.99. Got to love those bakery and deli girls.
My girl is 8, wants a Fitbit for her birthday, loves to party plan and get her craft on. It's like she's been here forever, but at the same time it feels like she just arrived. How can that be?!
