Warrior Birthday Party

Jillian tried something new this year for her boy’s birthday. It was a family or group or company that puts on warrior parties. They are called Battle Birthdays.

They supply all the foam “swords” and shields and whatever else is needed for a bunch of battle games.

Now, you know perfectly well that all the people with any smarts about them stayed perfectly “put” undercover in the pavilion. No swinging swords and crazed warriors running around us.

Nope.

I will say though that it was fun to see all the enthusiastic engagement from the ummmmm….

grown men. 

Apparently, this was their kind of kids party!

In fact, I almost lost track of the kids completely because it was so much fun watching the big guys.

I think we need to find out if these guys do more than just children’s parties. If they do…we should definitely book them a few more times…

if you get my drift.

Check out this adorable cake that Jillian made with the little sour patch warriors on the top!! She is soooo good at making whatever cake the kids want. It’s amazing.

Happy Birthday boy!

We sure love you.

Pop-up Ghosts

These little guys are some of my very FAVORITE things to crochet because they come together real fast–and well…

they’re just so DANG CUUUTE!! I made three of each kind and I hope they sell OUT!! Haha.

Whatever I bring home from the Market will go in my shop at graciousrainshop.etsy.com   

 just as soon as I can stop playing with them myself! Hahaa.

Ninja Turtles!!

My newest creation. The Ninja Turtles.

In case you’re wondering what my obsession is with alllll this crocheting.

I’ll tell you.

I did a very brave, possibly ridiculous thing a couple weeks ago. I applied for a booth at the Farmer’s Market in Lindon in September and was accepted!! From the moment I clicked “send” I’ve been panicking.

I’ve never done this before!

I have no idea how to do it!

I will need tons of help!

How will I make enough things in time?!!

It’s quite possibly time to freak out.
