After seeing these adorable Punxsutawney Phil cakes on Junior Society, I can't think of a better reason to celebrate Groundhog Day this year.

Now all we need is a copy of the movie Groundhog Day & life is sweet.

Robot Party Time

Okay, here is the bad news: I literally only had a few minutes to set up for the party. Unfortunately, there was a party before us & after their clean up, it didn't allow ANY time for set up before Evan's friends arrived. I also didn't have much of an opportunity to take many pictures (the few photos I do have are not great) AND I completely forgot to take photos of the favor table & the Robot fuel drink station.

HOWEVER, that being said, the GOOD NEWS! Evan had a great time celebrating with his friends & loved his laser tag birthday party (and that is what is MOST important!)

Robot Snacks

This morning, I packaged up some Robot snacks for Evan's party this weekend.


Every Robot requires lots of "nuts & bolts"



& several "computer chips" to run efficiently!



A BIG thanks to Kara for the cute snack idea!

Robot Pops

Yesterday, I found these lollipops & loved the color swirls for the robot party


but what I didn't like were the giant, UNREMOVABLE stickers on the front.


I cut circles of scrapbook paper & placed on robot stickers


& VIOLA, the Robot Pop is complete!


I left the lollipops in the original display box & stuck the entire piece in a shoebox covered in left over Robot gift wrap.


This was a very easy project & literally only took 30 minutes to make!

Valentine Card Projects

Both my boys love giving & receiving valentines. They have BOXES filled with cards and neither one wants to throw any of them out. But then I saw this..


and this heart garland....



What a fun way to display valentines! I am thinking of hanging each card wreath on their bedroom door. What do you do with your Valentines cards?
