Whose idea was this?



Ok, so for Haleigh's 5th birthday party, Shawn and I wanted to do something creative, something she'd really enjoy and remember...a paint party. Yes! It was a perfect idea. She loves to paint, most kids do, and what fun we'd have! Little did I know that the weather would turn crazy cold and we'd have to move our outdoor paint extravaganza to indoors.
We really did have a lot of fun...messy fun...but fun. Some friends came over and we painted with marbles, string, our hands, and then they talked me into letting them paint with their feet. I didn't realize just how slippery paint is to walk on...until Haleigh and Ellie fell and made butt prints on our masterpiece. The girls had a blast, then we ate a cake I made like a painter's pallet and opened gifts. The massive cleanup was worth all of the fun, giggles and memories made that day.

  5. Wait, whose idea was this again. Did you come up with this all by yourself, was it a team effort or did that husband of yours come up with it. I just thought it was a pretty original idea that needed a creator to be recognized. Just wondering??? Love you sweet-heart!
