Paisley's Birthday Party

Today was Paisley first friend birthday party! It was a cupcake themed party, and it was tons of fun!! Here is her cute cake!Jarom getting ready to play pin the sprinkle on the cupcake!

Everyone got their own cupcake piggy bank to paint, they turned out lovely!

Paisley painting away. She had a lot of fun, and surprisingly didn't pick pink or purple to go on hers.

Everyone else lined up for pin the sprinkle on the cupcake!

The results of the game:

Paisley's friends were very nice and gave her some very fun toys and games. Lots of princess stuff here!
Singing and blowing out the candles.


After the party Jarom liked wearing the blind fold as a headband. Paisley LOVES her new baby alive, but she has already been told we will not be taking advantage of the diaper part of this baby! :)

Cute Daddy and Jarom!

My cake was awesome if I do say so myself. I added a pink center to the cake. I do have a cupcake mold thing that helped. I also had cupcakes from the left over batter so most kids chose a cupcake instead, so we have LOTS of cake. Anyone want to come over tonight for cake?

The party was a success! Since it was Paisley's first friend party, it was our first time running a party and I was a little nervous. Everyone paints at different speeds and such so I was nervous about the timing of things, luckily in between activities everyone wanted to go downstairs because apparently Paisley has some pretty fun toys! Yay us! It was fun but I'm glad we don't have to do this again for a few years!

Fire Fighter Paisley

Today was a field trip to the fire station! It was a blast! I was lucky enough to be one of the drivers so I got to go along and take tons of pictures. It was so much fun to see all the big fire trucks and where the firemen sleep and all sorts of things. Here are a couple pictures from the trip!

Upcycled!

Upcycling isn't a new concept, but I haven't ever found an object that I had a great idea to turn it into!! I am so proud of myself for this awesome project that literally took 5 minutes to complete. Here it is. It is also a do it yourself project if you ever find yourself needing to upcycle a frame!
This awesome frame was a fantastic find at Goodwill!! I love the shape for obvious reason (clue: my store name is The Purse Place) but I hated the fabric. Plus it was just old and dirty. So I bought this bad boy with the idea to reupholster it! Here we go...
Here is the finished product. I was going to keep it a frame but then decided it looked cute as just a purse!

And bonus, since it is a frame I have the option of having it stand upright! SO CUTE! This is going to be such a cute accessory at my next craft fair! So next time you are browsing a thrift store, if you see something you love, but hate the fabric, it's nothing a half yard of fabric and a staple gun can't fix!
