Paper Culture Thank You Cards

Heather — Thu, 16 May 2013 18:12:43 +0000

I wasn’t quite sure what I was going to do about Ryan’s thank you cards for his first birthday party. Since I designed and printed the very on-theme invitations myself, I did want to customize my Paper Culture thank you cards by incorporating the Very Hungry Caterpillar somehow. I’d decided to wait until the big [...]

Like I said before, I really didn’t plan many activities for Ryan’s Very Hungry Caterpillar Party. We didn’t need to; the bounce house and swings were enough to keep the kids happy, and I liked it that way. The only structured activity we supplied for them was a piñata just before cutting the cake. There [...]

The weekend before last, we celebrated Ryan’s first birthday with a little shindig at our house. I’d fallen in love with the Very Hungry Caterpillar theme for his big day.

Yep. It’s that time of year again. You hear about people growing out of allergies. Well, I grew into mine. In my late twenties, I had a severe reaction while touring the Gettysburg battlegrounds with my husband on our anniversary. I’ve never been the same since. After getting tested, I found that I’m allergic to [...]
