I am TERRIBLE at kids birthday party planning. I don't love all the hype, expense and stress it has become and have gotten sad after not really enjoying the time with our birthday girl (or boy) because we were too busy with all the details. We have pared them down significantly over the past couple of years, but did want to do something a little more involved for Greer's 5th birthday.
Enter my sweet friend, Jennifer, and her booming art business, SMOCKS. She teaches several art classes each week, but also does birthday parties for kids. With Greer's love of Mrs. Rucker, painting and all things art, we scheduled the party there for the weekend before her birthday. Jennifer took care of the invites, decorations, paper products, location and cleaning/prep, engaging 2-hour activity for 4- and 5-yr-olds, party favors and even thank you notes. Uh-mazing. We just got to show up. How's that for no stress? :)
Sweet&Sassy on the way...she got her sparkly outfit the night before from the Bournes and was so excited to wear it to her party!
Studio with awesomely cute decorations...
Personalized welcome...
Loved watching her enjoy all of her friends...
They all did such a great job!
Greer's finished product, "Bloomin'"
All of 'em...so impressive!
Time for cake and ice cream!
Happy birthday to you!
And presents...the girls were all so silly and sweet :)
Thanks Mrs. Rucker for a great, great party! We love you :)
