So, I've been meaning to post pictures of Caedon's birthday party for over a week now but I....haven't. LOL! Here they are now, though, so no worries :)

I have been so tired this summer and really didn't put much effort into planning this party. My thought for a while was just to go to the store, let Caedon pick out his favorite plates/decor and be done with it. But then I was chatting with Amanda and we started talking about what he likes these days and I settled on a colors party. He's really into these little Baby First TV shows on Netflix and there are quite a few that are all about colors and he LOVES them. And I knew it would be SO FUN to decorate with all the colors so I said let's do it!
 |
| I knew right away that I wanted to make one of these. I'd seen them on pinterest and thought they were fun! I hot-glued crayons to the canvas in the order I wanted and then I just used my heat gun (embossing gun, but you can also use a hair dryer) to melt the wax down the canvas. It's so cute and I love it! |
 |
| I also bought a set of 8 Chinese lanterns on Amazon and we (ahem...Brian) hung them around the living room/kitchen area to decorate. They may or may not still be hanging up.....with no plans to take them down.... |
 |
| Not the best lighting but it shows our decorations - lots of colorful streamers, balloons, the lanterns, etc. |
 |
| Close up of the birthday banner. I re-used the number 3 I cut out for his birthday pictures. The swirly things on either end of the streamers are also from Amazon. The are cute and fun, too :) |
 |
| The table. More streamers and more swirly plastic decorations! |
 |
| The cake! Made by Amanda, of course, my very favorite cake decorator! |
 |
He gets so excited when we sing Happy Birthday, I looooove it!
(Also, notice the fun fruit tray - lots of colors!) |
 |
| He was so excited he had to turn and hug me. The sweetest thing EVER! |
 |
| Time to blow out candles! |
 |
| Coolest cake! It's adorable! |
 |
| This cute little table was given to us by a neighbor down the street, it was the perfect place for coloring...and eating! |
