So let me just begin with the fact that I already typed out this post once and it disappeared when I tried to publish! I'm sure you can imagine the death stare I was giving my computer. It was lucky it didn't get thrown against the wall! RRRRR! So hopefully I won't forget anything in my frustrated typing. So as easy as this felt board is, it is also time consuming. One thing you'll need to understand is that you will be cutting each piece out 3 times.
OOOOH Mandi Well you came and you gave without taking, and I sent you away, oh Mandy, (omitted line because I really don't think Mandi wants to kiss me and stop me from shaking, lol), and I need you today, o000h Mandy. Barry you said it BEST!! Why didn't I just sing this to you Mandi!! Well it may have been a little awkward I admit. Mandi I need you so bad I'm shaking! It may also be a nervous tick from cringing every time I walk by my poor poor play room. It is in the most desperate need of your assistance. My play room has become the bane of my existence. Let's see why!
No, I'm not talking about a high school pep rally. It's a Fiesta Party!
For my daughter's first birthday, which was on May 5th (Cinco de Mayo for those who might be running slow today, lol) we opted for a Fiesta theme for her birthday. I'm afraid she may be stuck for life on that aspect. I'm sure we'll mix it up over the years but I'll bet we'll always have an homage to the Fiesta theme to celebrate the day. Life could be worse!
What an interesting feeling it is to have sadness and joy wrapped up into one beautiful little package. My oldest daughter (ugh, even that sounds weird) has officially been enrolled in her first ballet class. She constantly dances ballet at home and for anyone who asks her to. Not to mention her favorite show and board game happen to be Angelina Ballerina.
Mason jars are big right now! There are so many things you can do with these little beauties, the list is endless. Wedding and home decor, picnic mugs, and light fixtures are just a few of the things you can do. Thanks to the addictive nature of Pinterest (blast you wonderful website!) I decided to paint some mason jars. It was my daughters first birthday, which also happens to coincide with Cinco de Mayo, so we went with...yep you guessed it, a fiesta theme. Too predictable? Well it was worth it. Who doesn't want to hit a pinata, dress up like little muchachos, and eat tacos?
