So yeah, this is late, like a month late, but better late than never!

So as I have said before, I’m thrifty and I don’t think that some of these over the top birthday parties for kids are needed.  We all survived on food, family, and cake.  However to each his own.  I can actually only remember two or three full on kid parties that I had as a kid.  I often got to pick one or two close friends and go to a movie, Sesame Street Live, the circus, or some other fun event.  I liked it that way.  An M will probably have the same thing.  I still had a family party too.

M’s family party this year was Mickey/Minnie themed.  Most decorations were downloaded for free from the web, bought from the dollar store, homemade, and a few things were bought from Etsy.  I made most of the food and the cupcakes, and M loved every minute of it!   Some pictures below…
