Boston's Art Party

So this year for Boston's 3rd birthday I literally threw a party together in 8 days!!! At first we were just going to do a family thing then it had a tiny ART theme and then last minute I had 8 kids there lol--so PLEASE DO NOT feel bad if you were not there it was so last minute with no invitations!!! I got these FABULOUS art printables from the gals at Petite Party Studio, and then everything else I made lol!!!! Well except that cute little cake--I didn't bake that but I decorated it! The palette cookies and paint brush rice krispy treats were super easy thanks to pinterest! Of course it was pretty windy that day so my paper chain backdrop was blowing in the wind and not creating a backdrop lol--I also stole borrowed this idea from Petite Party Studio. Each child had a canvas and a paint brush, and painted their heart out. It was so low key and relaxing I LOVED it, and so did Bosty.

Trey's Birthday @ School

Since Trey has a summer birthday they rushed and did his fun celebration today at school--it was a cute little ceremony where Trey was the sun and he rotated around the earth, he brought in a picture from every year he has been alive, we filled out a story about him, & we made cookies for everyone. I think he thoroughly enjoyed being celebrated again!

This marble toy is a HUGE hit!!!

 Trey's birthday fell on a Sunday this year so we were able to have his party on the same day! For me it was a very low key party, but it wasn't necessarily due to my laziness lol... It was at a bounce place that Trey picked and they were SUPER strict about only allowing cakes to be brought in, and no other desserts/drinks/food. I can not say that I was bummed though lol so we ordered his cool cake and made some super hero capes for the kids and that was it lol!!! He had a blast and it's the place and theme that he picked so all was well for him. So here are the party pictures...

 I ABSOLUTELY loved how his cake turned out courtesy of MOB!!

 I LOVE the way all the super hero capes turned out!!!! (tutorial at the bottom)

Thank you so much to all our family & friends who came out to celebrate with us!

CAPE Mini Tutorial...
I wanted this to be the easiest non-time consuming project because at 8 months pregnant I am a tad sluggish and since I had 15 to make I was honestly dreading it--(luckily my mom & grandma helped me & put a fire under my you know what lol) There was NO sewing involved!!! Anyways I went to Hobby Lobby and bought all my supplies
-Red felt by the yard--each cape was a perfect 25 X 25 in. square
-Hot Glue sticks (I didn't have time for fabric glue to dry since I procrastinated lol)
-sheets of black, orange, & yellow felt (4 for a dollar) for the logo which I just eyed to make
-Black yarn

After cutting out the squares for the actual cape we then cut the yarn and placed along one side--then we folded over a 1 in. flap and glued CAREFUL NOT to let your yarn get glue on it because it needs to move to allow the collar of the cape to scrunch when tied. Then I just cut out the pieces for the logo and hot glued those on--and I WAS DONE!!!! Such a fun and easy party favor!!!!
