We custom made these camping birthday party printables to decorate for our sweet boys 7th campfire and s'mores birthday party. We are offering them to our readers as well. Seven starts with balloons and streamers. On Tuesday, October 6th Quinn turned seven. Seven sounds sounds so old. It just so happened I was 37 weeks (full-term) with our fourth (and most likely last) on his birthday. Talk about things coming full circle! I'm bummed that I didn't remember to grab a picture ...

Some examples from past parties: As a reminder, folded paper bags make for a great and inexpensive way to serve food, plus ...
We Made it Six Years
Today is Quinn's sixth birthday! The little guy who made me a mom is one amazing boy. It also happened to be his golden birthday, but there were no "Pinterest" worthy parties. We did have my family over for the Badger game to celebrate. We went a whole different route celebrating this year and booked a room at a waterpark. Fun was had all around and it was such a wonderful way to spend time as a family. Phones and water do not mix well, so other then intentionally ...
