Cricket's birthday

We had a family party on her birthday at Pirate Pizza and then home for cake and presents.Her birthday party was an owl theme. We called in a "Night Owl Party." She invited her friends over from 7:30 to 10:30 to watch a movie in the back yard on the projector that Jon borrow from work.
We had all her friends hide the presents they brought her and she ran around the house looking for them. When she found one she got to open it. She loved it.These are the purses I made for goody bags. Well I didn't actually make the purses but I did put the super cute owls on them.This is what her invitations looked like, well they were all kind of different but you get the idea. PS never do this. I spent like sixteen hours making birthday invitations. It was retarded.

Wow! I DO plan to follow your advice not to make the invitations- but the bags were too cute! Did you have a pattern?

What a great idea and a memory never fogotten by Cricket. Time is one thing we can give our children, and it does not cost a cent---and doing it all yourself, or most of it, sure saves the pennies. Birthdays are very important, so I know why you spend the time to create memories. You can never live this birthday again. You are the best!
