Back with the living and a party!

Yesterday I got back to the land of the living. I finally felt better. Not 100% by any stretch, but better. I was glad about this for a variety of reasons, but one important reason was that I had a party to attend. Little Joshua was turning 4 (or will be on December 8th) and he was having a Cars birthday party while he had some family in for Thanksgiving.

Here's the invitation...

I found the idea on Pinterest for a race with the car's characters. Jennifer made cars for all the kids out of cardboard boxes. She did an excellent job! Here's the Birthday Boy in Lightening McQueen...

His cousin Anson in Mader...

Little Harper in her birthday cupcake outfit...

The party set up...

Cake...

Cupcakes...

The goody bags and Piston cups for the race winners...

Some of the food...

There were several races held...

One with the parents even...

After all that racing, it was time for some cake!

But first, you've got to blow out the candles...

Then the birthday boy has to lick the icing off of the cars...

Present time!

Finally, Joshua got a pillow pet (the finally would be his thoughts on the matter)...

Pinata time...

I'm glad I was able to make it to one of my favorite little guy's party! I came home and watched the Tech game (ugh...).

Today, I have managed to start on Christmas decorations. I have the mantle done, the nativity out and a few other things. I haven't even started on my four trees yet. Anyone want to come help?

It's SATC Saturday Again

First, I will start you off with a little movie... Sex and the City- All the Best Moments from the Movie. WARNING : If you haven't seen the movie, don't watch this. Oh, and also please rectify this ASAP. Ann- they have the movie at your local TJ Maxx for $5.99. I meant to buy it for you when I was there and bring it to you at Robin's party, but I got distracted by lamps and forgot (sorry!). This week has been pretty lame-o on the updates front. All I have found is that there are reports of some drama on the set between Kim Cattrall and SJP. Of course there have been reports in the past that these two gals didn't get along (personally I think it is just because KC is a little too big for her britches and doesn't seem to always remember that SJP is an executive producer and Carrie is, well the star ). There are also reports that SJP is possibly a little overwhelmed with having the two new twin girls and little James Wilkie to take care of...
