it was rainbow party

Pinterest was my go to for birthday party inspiration.  You can see all those here. 

Pinterest pros?  Great inspiration for all things across the interwebz. 
Pinterest cons?  The largest time suck ever AND I have boards of ideas and things that will never come to fruition. 

The rainbow party is something I can check off that list.  I had so much fun shopping ideas that actually came to life.

These table skirts were a total PITA (pain in the a$$, for those not in the know).  The tutorials I found via Pinterest were made with fabric and I don't have the time for that.  What am I going to do with ruffly rainbow colored tableskirts after the rainbow party was over?  Holler to 99 cent store vinyl table cloths and a hot glue gun.  Thankfully, I've already have my fingerprints registered via LiveScan because I burnt off most of them though the process.  Not too shabby and disposable, right?

I didn't post this one.  You know, the mirror I used to take all my bump pictures in?  Shattered.

great coloring project for the kiddies, too.

the smash cake that nearly went untouched.

A sweet, sweet friend of ours made the cakes for us.  I'm not much of a baker or cake eater.
