We usually just have a simple birthday cake to celebrate birthdays in our family. I thought it would be fun to have a little "party" with balloons and a banner..for nephew #2's birthday.
It was easy because I bought the banner [horror!!! *LOL*] and the older boys blew up the balloons [lots of saliva in those balloons..hehe..]
The birthday boy was really happy. And even the kids' mother wanted to be in the photos! [You've never seen me scrap her right? *winks*]
Apparently, now that the "standard" has been set, everyone wants balloons and banners for their birthdays....so I just might make a banner. *winks*
