Daisy's sixth birthday party was today! The invitations said "please join us for a MONSTER of a good time!" So we themed it all pretty colors and cute monsters! It was a simple backyard party with good friends, family, and lots of good times to be had by all! We had beautiful 80 degree weather, and the kids had a blast playing in the water and drinking more than one kool-aid-jammer. The kids love those nasty things.
I made these big monster thingys out of cardboard. They doubled as a bean bag toss game, and a picture taking backdrop! It was really fun! The kids loved putting their faces in the mouths for a picture! (Big thanks to my dad for doing all of the wood-working on these :)
This is Daisy and her friend Lillian acting like they are being eaten! AHHHHH!
I like this one because it's kind of creepy... like the monster ate the kid, and all you can see is her hand :)
The birthday girl!!
Monster cupcakes! my friend Tracy came up with this idea and she made these for the party! She was such a great help!
This is the stairs in my kitchen
So Daisy LOVES Brig's bows. Brig was on the show Shear Genius on Bravo, and Daisy always tells me if I make her Brig bows, she will wear them all the time! So I made her a few Brig bows for her birthday... she's awefully cute!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Momma loves you!!!
I know I am over a year late on this, but this party looks awesome. I am
Planning my daughters party and was wondering how you got the cardboard bean bag toss boards to stand up. Thanks!

Oh my gosh, Missy! Everything is SO SO cute! I love the beanbag game/ photo frames! So funny that the kids look like they're being eaten by monsters. The cupcakes are adorable too! Oh, and the "Brig" bow! You are the coolest mom ever.
