Halloween Theme

And so, even though Nachito's Birthday is in November, for his 8th Birthday, he wanted a Halloween themed party.

We planned it at home with all of his friends from school, and Kai even had some friends from dance there as well.

For invitations, I bought the packs of paper wall hangings in pumpkin shapes. The packages that teachers use for their bulletin boards. I traced the shapes onto black card stock and printed the party info on orange card stock. I tied the two pieces together with black and orange tulle and just handed them out like that.

Everyone that came over to the house was dressed up for the occasion. The kids had a blast!! It was a lot of fun to plan a Halloween party, maybe next year he'll want to do this theme again.

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them.

Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

Part II of "My life through my iPhone. Saturday was the Marcos De Niza Homecoming! Kassie and Aaron had a blast! I was able to finish Kassie's ballroom shoes on Sunday. It was spirit week for Corona del Sol and on Monday it was TV character day. She dressed as Blaire Waldorf from Gossip Girl. Corona had a bon fire on Thursday, and the Pommies performed a hip hop routine. Here is a picture I stole from Instagram. On Saturday evening, the kids decided to carve pumpkins. Here is Nachito and Chanel getting ready to carve. Kassie and her friend Amanda did some carving too! These may not be great posts, but it's a start.

Just how long has it been? A long, long time....

Not so much of a Blogaholic. I almost feel the need to change the name of my poor little blog. It has sat here deserted with no updates and no pictures. I think about it everyday, yet I can't seem to find the time to come back to it. My intention for my blog was to document so much of our days and lives. And yet, I have let months go by without one little entry. There is no way my mind can remember everything that has happened since my last post. So much missed. The majority of Kai's 8th grade year, and the majority of Nachito's 5th grade year. Not to mention how many holidays and important events I have missed. Trips and of course Birthday parties. Somehow I need to find the time to record these events, and even if I have to back date them, I will document them at some point. This week is a tough school week for the kids. AIMS testing for both of them. Today they both felt very good about how they did. Nothing much has changed in Kai's world. She still dances, still c...
