A Tangled 8

So my baby girl is 8 ahhhhhhhh… where did the time go.  We had a little party for her with some friends, it was all themed around the movie Tangled.

We made paper lanterns and put glow necklaces inside so they would glow.

See the glowing??? 

I promise they looked better than the picture is showing.

We roasted Hot Dogs on the fire and had a picnic on our new grass.

Then we hit a piñata with a frying pan of course.  By the way thanks Lisa for the fun idea the girls loved it.

Finally we settled them down to watch the movie TANGLED in the backyard on the big screen. 

Overall Megan said it was a great birthday.

A little piece of green heaven

 

BEFORE:  Here was our backyard when we moved in, and of course we just couldn’t leave it like this. . . .

So we pulled out those ugly bushes . . . .

Brought in some good dirt . . . .

Built us a delicious and beautiful garden . . . .

Added a super fun fire pit . . . .

Planted us some Peach trees . . . .

And finally got us some beautiful, green, green, grass.

AWWW the perfect non-Arizona yard.
