Last weekend we celebrated the big SeVeN with a Lego party. The boys had a great time and I have to admit it was really easy to plan and very laid back. Here's what we did, in case a Lego party may be in your future too :) The Birthday Boy: Cutest 7 year old I know! The Decorations: We went super low key with our decorations... Lego- what's a Lego party without a TON of Lego? We dumped a bunch in the middle of our dinning room table for decoration, but also for the games we had planned... Lego soap- we decided to add a few pieces of Lego to the liquid soap in our bathroom. A fun little surprise for our guests! simple paper plates and cups ;) The Cake: The birthday boy requested cupcakes, which made me very happy because they are so easy! We made them together, pipped on some homemade blue icing (which was a hit at the party because it dyed all the kids teeth blue) and added some StarWars cupcake toppers. Found free here! The games: Lego Guess- we filled a small container with Lego and had the boys try to guess how many piece of Lego there were. The little guy who won was only 8 pieces off. Crazy! Lego Towers- we put the boys in teams of two and gave them 5 minutes to build the tallest tower they could. The were so excited to line them all up beside each other and see who won. Surprise Lego Build- before the party I made up a card for each of the boys. On each card was an idea like Car, Airplane, Castle, Tower, Spaceship, Rocket, House. We sat down at the table and each of the boys were given a card. Without telling anyone what it was, they had to make what was on their card. At the end, the other boys had to guess what they had made. This was a huge hit! Lego relay- We divided the boys into two teams. We set a huge box of Lego between them and gave them a minute to take turns throwing one piece of Lego at a time into their team's bucket placed a few feet ahead of them. It was so cute seeing them all celebrate if they made a goal :] The Loot Bags: We scored some fun Starwars action figures on clearance at Walmart and then added hockey cards, a glow stick and some candy. But the best part were these cute little personalized Lego Starwars Tags found free here! I simply printed them off and then had them laminated. Perfect! A fun afternoon that was pretty much stress free. Now that's my kind of party :) Happy Lego Party Planning! Linked to: Show and Share Day, Favorite Things Friday, Weekend Wrap Up

A new grandchild. Baby Love. A new baby is precious, but when it's your grandchild it's even better. Everything about them is special.

Having the proper attire at our tea party not only set the perfect mood, but also provided a great activity to keep the girls busy. Here is some more info for the fascinators that were such a hit at the party. You'll need: headbands felt hot glue and gun tulle fabric flowers assortment of trimmings ribbon feathers pearls etc. I made the base of the fascinator before the party so they could quickly be assembled. The base of the fascinator is made by sandwiching a headband in-between two felt circles. It's held together with hot glue. The top circle is 5" and the bottom circle is 3". I used my Go! Baby fabric cutter to cut the circles, but you could easily trace a bowls or cups about those sizes. I purchase the silver headbands from Ribbon Retreat, for 40¢ a piece. The first step was letting each girl chose a gold or pink tule for the flare at the top of the fascinator. I attached the tule myself so that no one would get burned. I found these rolls of tulle at our local party supply store for about $3.50 each, using a roll instead of tulle from the bolt was very convenient. While I was attaching the tulle, the girls picked from the assorted trimming and started designing their hats. I took some time in the days before to make several fabric flowers. If you need some ideas of how to put these together here are two good tutorials. I hot glued mine together. fabric flower tutorial from Simply Analogy and fabric flower tutorial from Cherry Street Cottage Lydia wanted to make sure blue was included and I loved these butterflies I found at the party store in a pack of 20 for about $4. Some other items not pictured are various items in stash, white feathers($1.50, walmart) and pink glass beads ($2.50, Walmart) Once they decided what they wanted they brought everything to me and I put glue where they wanted it and they stuck their trimmings on. It went really smooth. This one was designed by my 5year old. I was worried about what she would want but thought she did a great job. I made four fascinators the night before, one for each of the women helping at the party. It was really fun, and would recommend this activity for women too. Here are two more examples of the ones I made: Now for her dress..... Did anyone notice Lydia's cute tea dress. I desperately wanted to make her a lace dress for the party but knew I had limits especially because I wear out so easy these days. Luckily I found the Timepiece Dress from DownEast at their clearance center the week before the party. I found it in a women's medium size but it was only $10 and I knew it would be easy to scale down to Lydia's size. After 40 minutes of altering we had the perfect tea dress. I unpicked the sleeves, brought down the shoulder line, tapered in the sides and reattached the sleeves. I also added a ribbon belt and an old flower clip we already had. I love the lace and embellished neckline. For more info about the party go HERE.

With all the baby excitement going on from the Virtual baby Shower for Katie from Sew Woodsey, I started thinking about when my daughter was pregnant and I was choosing my own grandparent name. I’d never thought about a grandparent name…at all, until then. I remember finding good lists of names but didn’t come across any...Read More »

Coming up with grandparent names can be surprisingly difficult. After I told my mom I was pregnant with my older son she cautiously asked, “What do the kids call Helen?” Crap. My mother-in-law already had three grandchildren under her belt and they all call her ‘Grandma’. I braced myself as I told my mother that ‘Grandma’ was kind of taken to which she shouted, “Can I be Nana then?!? I want to be called Nana!!” Turns out she loved her Nana and wanted to be a glorious Nana to my kids. Oh, ok

well, it hasn’t been much of a winter. the kids are stuck in this whole “there’s a little bit of snow outside, but not enough to play in the snow” and “it’s not …
