We celebrated Jackson’s 2nd birthday yesterday with a last-minute impromtu party. On Monday this week, I looked at the weather report to find out what day was going to be nice outside. Then I sent an email out to friends for a backyard birthday party. Surprisingly, most everyone could attend, since it was during the weekday. Little thought and planning went into the party. It was nice to have a good ‘ol classic birthday party. You know…the kind your parents would throw for you when you were a child. At least that’s how it was for me. No theme, a few friends, cupcakes, balloons, pin-the-tail on the donkey, musical chairs. You get the idea. I do think some childrens’ birthday parties can get over the top with a theme and the pressure is on for the parent to out-do last year’s party or someone else’s birthday party. I admit. I’m guilty of it. But this time around, it was nice to pull out old stuff from the craft closet and pick up a few items at the local party store. Make cupcakes and then call it good.
