Super Hero's, Pirate's, Mermaids,Princesses, Fish, Bugs OH MY...

I LOVE EVERYTHING Birthday!  Who wouldn't?! I have been loving all the ideas that have come from friends and in the middle of the night @ 4 AM (those are the best). Super Hero's, Pirates & Mermaids, Fish, Bugs, Knights & Princess, Candyland (Okay, can I say YUM!!), just to name a few.  

Also, God has really been speaking to me about teaching my kids to serve and give to others (Romans 12:10, "Be devoted to one another in brotherly love.  Honor one another above yourselves." John 15:12-13, "Christ's command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.  Greater love has no one than this that he lay down his life for his friends.") Instead of them receiving birthday presents, which they will love in the moment but not appreciate, ask that their guest bring items to give to charity (books, clothing, canned food, dog food (thanks Sharon), collect $ for Heifer, military,etc...).  It's just something that God has REALLY been laying on my heart and in this day and age I feel it's important that they learn early how important it is to think of others first.

Now, I'm going to take these ideas and run!  Cake ideas, party favors, games/crafts, decorating ideas, locations,etc...Let the Wild Rumpus Begin!!

The Big 1 and 4

So, I have been scouring the internet, looking through magazines and everywhere in between (okay maybe not everywhere) searching for GREAT joint birthday ideas since my kids share a birthday month.  Only to realize that there aren't that many resources or ideas out there for boy/girl birthday parties.  I'm looking for ideas that will incorporate both boy and girl parties.  I have yet to find anything super spectacular!  Let's face it, you want your birthday to be SPECTACULAR, or at least I do.  Which led me to start this blog.  I'm going to create ideas for my kids birthday and share them with you and hopefully you'll share some ideas too.  


I will take ideas like dinosaur and ballerinas and create a birthday party that boys and girls will enjoy!  Or something like that...


By the time it is all said and done there will Spectacular birthdays to be shared by all.
