Sorry for my craziness ....

Have a GREAT weekend!!

Is the party over yet? Oh Wait I'm still planning!

Saturday is the big day for Cole's 9th Birthday party.  I've been in complete party planning mode thinking I was doing really good then tonight I look at my list and around me and I'm a little freaked!  I am so excited that the pool is fixed and the party is on at the right place!  A little prayer may be needed here.

List is made

Cupcake Pans are lined and ready to go!

Cake Mix is Made

Bins are getting packed by the front door

Noodle's are by the door

Mom's Toes are a pretty copper like C-3PO

And new Wedge Shoe's for mom!

Let's say a Prayer she doesn't fall.

Party Planning Funny

I've been in full party planning mode as you most know and work is crazy too, we are going to a new system for our calls which means training and lot's of meetings so little time for me. So no long post today, thought I would give you a funny ecard instead.

I saw this one on the someecards website ... Well it was kind of like this but it had a swear word and I'm trying real hard to leave my potty mouth behind ... lol.  So I tweaked it and added a different image.  Now you can laugh away because you all know this is true and me to a T.

Have a GREAT day!

I think the house may take me alive soon ….

Sadly I’m still sick as a dog for a week now, I’m hoping that soon my head will feel back to normal.  I’ve been working this whole week it’s been rough but keep pushing threw each day.  Sadly I have not gone to the gym in a week and it’s killing me to be off my routine especially now that I’m back on my thyroid pills which hopefully will help me get back on track health wise. (Google Images for photo)

So the laundry has been pilling up (because of course I’m the only one who can wash and put it away).  The dog hair is trying to invade every inch of the house (again I’m the only one who can vacuum). My dad walked in yesterday (my parents house is the immaculate “museum” as we call it).  I could just see it on his face … lol Thankfully he heard me talk and knew I was sick and not time to mention my cleaning habits . 

This has been one heck of a cold that is kicking my butt.  Some how I’m the only one that can keep the inside of the house clean and pretty soon your going to find me lying on the floor under a pile of dog car that is starting to resemble a coat and laundry over the top of that.  Oh please God let this cold go away.  Even though my family thinks they can function with out me we are seeing the proof they can not.  And my poor children can not eat what my husband calls dinner any longer.  Fast Food may be a meal in his eye but not mine, of course the boys are loving it!

Today I must take a shower and go grocery shopping.  Rain or shine I have a party to host tomorrow and I’m thinking no one will want to see me covered in dog hair or laundry.  What do you think?

I will power threw I have cupcakes, pudding pops and of course Jello Shots to make.

Wish me luck!

Party Planning Again!

It’s time to plan Caden’s party, it’s at my parents house so I won’t have to do much running around.  My mom will be hosting the party which is so nice to have the use of their waterfront for the kids to play.  Mom loves to throw parties and cook, she is an amazing cook, her food is more for the grown up … which is great but the kids not always on board with dressed up mac and cheese with tomatoes or onions … lol.  I love her food but the kids sometimes look at it like we’ve gone mad.  She would like to do nice sandwiches.  I think I may have to sneak some hot dogs down, I sworn not to bring them but I just know the kids would really want them … hehe so I must be on a covert mission to bring them in. 

Now as many of you know my parents did a huge remodel of their waterfront and they say it’s for this party … hehe.  God love them when we had my wedding at their house they did a huge remodel their too some how that included a new smoke house which I’m not sure how it played into being because of my wedding but it did … lol.  So the lake is ready for a party, but as the rest of the country is having a heat wave here in the PNW we are experiencing storms and downpour of rain.  And yes we are known for our rain but usually we’re pretty safe to plan a party in July with out having to worry about rain!  I need all the prayers I can get right now for NO RAIN, right now they are calling for showers!

So now on to making the cupcakes, as you may have guessed I’m going to make them.  I’ve been working very hard to be able to make the kids party cakes myself.  Now I’m NO Duff, but I’m trying hard to make cute ones .  So on the search for the best cupcake design to use:

These are cute look like the ones I made for Cole just NOT in the ice cream cone!

These look cute but I’m not sure about transporting with the trees, could always assemble at the party.

These are super cute but I’ve never worked with fondant.

These also look like the ones I did for Cole.

 

I think I’ve decided on these! hehe I think they look a little creepy but I know the kids would get a kick out of them!  With out the flag about school.

What do you think?

Then of course I thought I’d do my pudding pops but make them like ocean colors so do dark blue, then light blue and white for the kids.

And for the adults and because my BF had her birthday last week I thought I’d make these Unfettered F-U-N . . . Rainbow Jelly Shooter! I found the COOLEST website for you Jello Shot fans It’s the Jello Shot Test Kitchen and she even has a book out.  Talk about elegant grown up jello shots, she makes the coolest one’s with not sight of a paper cup!

So I think I’m set on the cupcakes, pudding pops and the Jello Shots to be made.  I will sneak in some hot dogs along with items to make the s’mores.  Rick built them an amazing fire pit out of bricks.  It looks very pretty which is why Rick is not too pleased to be having me use it … lol.

On a plus side Rick is scheduled to work that day and he couldn’t get the day off, so he is going to take a personal day which is not ideal but hey it’s better then him not being there (which most times he has to work and only can be there for 1/2 the time).

So I’m still sick so I need all the prayers I can get right now for no rain and to be done with the cold!  Thanks again for all the well wishes you guys are just amazing!
