Taking my pool down since summer is almost over...It is a mess!...I have drained it and now it needs to be placed back into the box along with all the other items that belong with it......that is a task and a lot of tough work....
My grandpa's birthday is soon so I am going to make him a birthday cake, purchase him some birthday balloons and a card.....
We have in the past had Birthday parties for him and it can get pricey!....I remember we went to several stores gathering items for his birthday party because many friends/family were invited at the church.....so with that many people invited we had to purchase and supply extra items for the party...
We went to several stores to purchase enough paper plates, cups, napkins, banners, balloons, party favors, plastic silverware, paper tablecloths.....
Party City is one store we like and we purchased many of these things there...
But in that amount of time we had, they ran out of some things/were not available, so we went to the Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Family Dollar, to their party supply aisles and purchased more...it was more affordable that way and we were exhausted but happy they had all the items there as well!....
we themed it cowboy and his favorite color.....he liked that! and we made his birthday cake cowboy....you can purchase the birthday cakes in other stores but we like to make our own sometimes...it is more work and fun to make cakes/cupcakes and I know that! also we like to make our own punch to drink...
I just like to always make Birthdays and all celebrations very pretty, themed, colorful, and I like to purchase balloons, cards, party favors and party favor plastic bags, plastic silverware, tablecloths, napkins, table top decorations, banners, and send invitations.....
you don't have to have all those items to have a nice celebration because it can cost a lot, but when I have extra money or someone else is helping pay on the party we will purchase all those items...
the Dollar Stores need to have many more items on their party aisles...Dollar Tree does good with their party aisle I think......
celebrations should be good memories and affordable....always purchasing those items and having favorite color items/themes there is wonderful...haha!
taking pictures at these celebrations and placing them in photo albums or scrapbooks is nice...for remembering that day...
good thing that I don't have to purchase all this stuff for his birthday this year or plan a ginormous party!....just making a birthday cake for him, a card and balloons from me....he will appreciate that.
birthday candles are nice to have.....number candles work best when your birthday age is doubled.....he always laughs about those candles every birthday!.....haha!
