Tomorrow my little Cupcake turns 2!!! How did that happen?!?!?!? She has grown SO much in the last 2 years. It is absolutely amazing! She talks nonstop, is running and jumping and climbing ALL THE TIME, she can do puzzles, she loves to read and for the most part is a happy girl. The girl can definitely turn on the ‘tude, though!
We decided to have her party the weekend after her birthday since the weekend before was Mother’s Day and because we’ll have some out of town guests we didn’t want to interfere with any plans they may have. So that means party prep is in full swing here!
It started with this.
The deck looked awful! That’s why I power washed it last week. And that just made it worse (which is what I was going for).
It was a two nap and one night (with a helper) project, but it’s done! Have I ever mentioned that our deck is huge? We wanted to repaint it last year before Cupcake’s birthday, but it was too rainy leading up to the party. In the end it didn’t matter since it rained the day of the party any way! So far it looks like sunny skies for this years party. Let’s just hope that doesn’t change in the next few days!!!!
See the difference?
We will not be entertaining any guests before Saturday because the dining room table looks like this.
Actually it looks worse now! I did some food shopping and a little more craft store shopping.
I’ve done a little more spray painting, some wreath making, banner hanging, serving dish washing and some furniture rearranging! I’ve been cleaning as well, which will be a continuous process over the next few days until party day!
It’s going to be a busy week!!!
Good Luck with all your projects!
Thank you! Stay tuned for a detailed party post next week!
