KJ turned 6 this past Saturday. We had a family party which included his and I's best friends that we have had for what seems like forever. It was small, but it turned out to be so much fun! KJ had no idea his birthday was this past weekend. We may have led him to believe it was a week away. The Mr took him out for the morning doing man stuff and when they returned a party was awaiting. He was utterly shocked!!!! Ha. He wanted a red and blue party so I ran with it all the way down to the cake. The fabrics I had laying around the house from previous parties. Everything else was from either party city, the dollar tree, or things I, again, had around the house. We are on a huge budget, obviously. KJ loves to catch bugs so when I spotted the red and blue bug catchers at the Dollar Tree I knew they would make perfect party favors. The part I loved most though was the huge prints I had done at Staples. They were under $5 a piece and are done on copy paper. I did one for every year of his life. He LOVES them and it was hard for me to take them down. He really wants them in his room though so I shall oblige. I really can't believe my BABY is six, whaa...
