HB's first BD party at Nana's
 Can you believe this little bit is 10?? TEN!!!!???!!!!????!!!

                            
             Heaven's party this weekend was a huge success!! We had a few fantic moments...like when it started to downpour less than an hour before the Swim Party kicked off...or when the green cupcakes started melting about 10 minutes before the guests arrived...but overall it was an absolutely awesome day!! Heaven said it was her best party ever & all her friends left with big smiles! It was a lot of hard work...but it definitely paid off in the end.

            Friday night the lady Brandts helped finish up some of the last minute projects. They were actually really, really helpful and everyone bragged on their decorations!


Heaven wrapped the cupcake display "boxes" and decorated them herself as well

Camo Cupcakes
These were SUCH a pain to make. #neveragain














The cutest napkin folders around!
                As the guest arrived, they were asked to take photos in our "Redneck Red Carpet" area before jumping in the pool. We got a lot of REALLY cute photos of everyone donning their favorite Duck Dynasty props. It was probably my favorite thing about the party!!  The kids didn't let a little rain stop them from jumping in the pool after their photos, and seemed to be enjoying the rain even!

Even the pups couldn't resist a photo



My grandparents...clearly I never really had a shot of normalcy



Gavin's one and only willingly posed photo
After the kids had a chance to work up an appetite, we dried off and had some Duck Dynasty themed grub, camo cupcakes & ice cream!

We finished up the party with gifts, games and a few more photo prop pictures with friends.

Show'n off her new BIKE! I can't believe just a few years ago she was scared to give up her training wheels!

Crazy Girls


This photo will show up in a senior slide show a few years from now. You can count on that.
 The "Flour Game" was a HUGE hit...




Heaven had a few friends spend the night to finish off her party weekend. They stayed up late (REALLY late), watched numerous Netflix shows and ate candy and popcorn  in the living room....I think those are pretty good signs of a successful night!!

I for one....am glad we've got a little break before the next party. I am party'd out!!!! Annabelle, however has already started thinking of themes for her January birthday....I made threats to end that madness immediately

I need at least 2 months to re-coop.

Birthday Bash Numero Uno

Pretend It's January 5th, 2013 It's Birthday Season here at the Brandito Lair! Mr. Brandt heads back tomorrow and it's time for the annual triple treat birthday party for Mr. B, Uncle Danny and Annabelle.  Katy made 2 delicious cakes for the event. The boys got their own green cake and Annabelle got her own special Mario Cake.  We had some delicious food and the Birthday people got lots of special prizes!  The UnBirthday Party was definitely a success!

Baby You're A Firework

One of these outfits was self chosen....the other was chosen by Mama...can you guess which is which?                   Happy 4th of July everyone!!  It was a rainy 4th for us Floridians. But with the rain comes cooler temperatures, and I'll take a little wet over sweat any day.   We started the 4th off by sleeping in (which of course still means we were up by 9...) and then cooked out with the Brandt/Simmons clan for lunch. We'd planned to go to the Riverwalk area too take part in the crafts and whatnot but once the girls heard Ava was already at Nana's house...they could not be persuaded to do anything that did not include being with her.   Cousins                  It was overcast and cloudy all day, but we did manage to escape most of the rain. Until the fireworks that is. I'm talking lite...

Wackiness

  It's wacky hat day at PRE today. Only Annabelle felt inclined to participate as it costs 2 feathers. Heaven said it was a "total waste of feathers" and Gavin said nothing as his only hat is a Seminole hat and he's gone rogue lately claiming suppot for Gators. My dear Annabelle made up for both of their lack of sense & style.  She is both Fancy in my large sunhat and Fabulous in her FSU Friday decor.   Doesn't get much better. Happy Friday!
