Strawberry Shortcake!

My sister gave my niece a beautiful Strawberry Shortcake! Here it is!
The games were so cute. They had a "berry smash" it was balloons with prizes. Also strawberry shortcake had left clues around the house and they went on a hunt for these strawberries. They also made tissue flowers. Very cute!

4th of JULY!

We had a blast on fourth of July. Lots of friends and family, lots of food, and a ton of fireworks!
The decor was easy and cheap... all from the dollar store. There 4th of July section was pretty good this year!
The drinks were great for the kids. The candy display worked out perfect! The candy was a 1.88 at Winco(which is my new favorite store) We had hotdogs and hot links. With the buns, cupcakes, drinks, candy, and meat the grand total was 101.68. That is cheap when you are feeding 46 people! The cute candy bags I got at zurchers for 1.50
Table cloths from the dollar store hanging with a fishing line worked as a curtain. The center pieces were a place mat, a star, candy, and a balloon weight. The star ice cubes were from a star ice cube maker from the dollar tree.
I loved how the lights worked out. I just wrapped christmas lights with 4th of July garland. It was great when it got dark! I wish I had a better camera because it was so much cooler than the picture. We had a blast and will do it again next year!
