On our way...

Construction has begun and we can't wait to get back in our home! The foundation was poured today.

Star Wars Party

When my ideas of a Buzz and Woody party were foiled by Brady's love of everything Star Wars I had to go back to the drawing board to make his third birthday come to life. There was one requirement set forth by my "client", to make Star Wars Brady's reality. I knew this task would not be easy. I mean the kid sees Star Wars in constant replay in his mind and reenacts the movies on a daily basis. I know more about Star Wars than I ever imagined possible at the age of 3.  The Star Wars extravaganza is over and all we have is photos and memories. I want to share a few photos of Brady's favorite part: Darth Vader. I'll share more details later. All of the kids loved Darth Vader, even the girls were chasing him around with light sabers. Having a heart to heart. Luke and Darth. Darth was amazing! He was so hot I could see the sweat dripping from his mask. Not one moment did he complain, remove his mask or break character. He truly loves his job and it showed. Worth every penny. It's amazing how much I stress about the little things. The whole day made this little guy's dreams come true. 

 

I had such a fun time creating Star Wars Birthday invite.  I picked up a invite kit from Michaels and customized it on the computer.  I simply loved how they turned out.

I made custom sugar cookies using cookie cutters from Williams-Sonoma.  

And the most EPIC cake!!  Rossmoor Pastries in Long Beach did the most amazing job I was absolutely blown away by their art in cake form. 

The cake was so big that we were able to save the 'planet' portion for our family Birthday dinner. 

Buzz and Woody Preschool Party

When planning Brady's Birthday I thought Buzz and Woody would be so much fun. I started purchasing stuff way in advance as to acquire more than necessary in true fashion. Something happened along the way, Brady developed an opinion of his own. That opinion had no room for Toy Story and little room for anything other than Star Wars. So here is his very forced Toy Story school party a month early, before school was out for summer. Honestly, he could care less! This was more for me than him trust me.

Summer time...and the livin's easy

Star Wars

Prepping for party number 2 of 2010...the theme? Star Wars of course!

Happy 4th Birthday Baby

The party is over and here are a few snapshots of the day. More to come as they are edited.

Obsessed!

Looks like we are on to a new obsession. Star Wars! Our home has been filled with big characters, little characters, lightsabers, books, and in the works...a new bedroom. Things are about to great a little more hectic as we are going ahead with a remodel and addition.





We've been living in a little over 900 sq. ft. for almost 5 years now. With the addition of each new child we loose a little more space. I've had to get pretty creative about how I organize and store all of our worldly posessions. I do a pretty good job with what I have to work with. With that being said head on over and read about my creative obsessions.
