Birthday Weekend

23 Jan

It was a busy, party-filled weekend at the Lemonade House. Sister turned 6 on Thursday, and Brother turned 11 on Sunday.

Sister chose to celebrate her birthday with friends at Build-a-Bear Workshop. It was a fun party. For the big day, I made sister a fun Birthday Girl outfit — it has kind-of become a birthday tradition. You can see past birthday outfits here.

This year’s was a quick sew. First I used my new embroidery machine to decorate a shirt I bought. Then I made some matching pull-on pants. Sister liked them because they fit like pajama pants. Super cute — and super easy.

Evidently, 11 is too big to dress special for your birthday. Brother opted to celebrate with the family at Benihana. It was really good food, and a lot of fun.

I love my kids! They are a joy to be around. I just cannot believe how quickly they are growing up!

    Your kids are just adorable! I have a special fondness for redheads, as my two boys have red hair, too. (My daughters are brunettes — go figure!) And that birthday outfit is SO cute!!

    I wanted to thank you for your visit to my blog, too. Really appreciate your comment, and I hope you’ll give those zippered pillows a try sometime. ;)
