Garbage Man!

Another Halloween(2013) and what does this little man want to be? of course a Garbage man! Last year he was a garbage truck, which I should have never gotten rid of! It rained all day but it didnt stop us from getting out to trick or treat! Umbrellas and raincoats went perfectly with our costumes! Hope you had a wonderful and safe Halloween. Here is Liam's Garbage Man Costume..... enjoy!

Just Like That, It's Fall!

Fall time is so beautiful here in Chicago. I spent a beautiful Saturday with my little Liam and pretended to be a photographer and snapped this pictures of my cutie, enjoy!

Had so much fun just roaming in Lincoln Park taking these.

Bundle up and enjoy the fall : )

Dr. Seuss Fourth Birthday Party

We decided to have Liam's fourth birthday in sunshine florida, however it rained all morning before the party. I pulled most of my hair out, my even have cried a few times, regardless the party turned out perfect! Big shout out to my mom, Kathy for all of her help and amazing ideas, most of all allowing me to boss her around for a week

Pinata was a success the kids loved it. 

I just had cupcakes made at publix and made our own toppers 

My mom made this amazing photo prop. Hand painted and perfect! 

The window covers came out fabulos! Hand painted and a huge hit. The kids and parents loved them!

Thank you to everyone who came out and made Liam's birthday a success. 

These second hand dr Seuss books were enjoyed by all :-) 

There's those delicious cupcakes again. Yummy. 

Our matching shirts were cute. Curtesy of etsy :) 

Most decorations were handmade. Enjoy and have fun planning your next party. 

Just Another Garbage Truck Birthday Party! (3 years old)

Wow, time flies when you are having fun. Liam's third birthday turned out to be a success this year! I decided not to have a big party this year, but instead I did something special at his school. I put together these amazing goodie garbage cans. Take a look, tell me what you think....

I thought these little goodies garbage cans came out fabulous! The kids at school really loved them! Inside was a lollipop, a recycle theme stamp and sticker, smarties, I made custom garbage truck sticker that said "Liam's 3rd Birthday" and a little truck.
I purchased most of these items from, Oriental Trading
I think its a great website to buy random party goodies in bulk from. Check them out for any event.

I made most of them toppers and paper products from an image I found on the Internet, and a sticker machine. Greatest thing ever! Get one!
I hope you find some great items! Hope you make your party a success! Good luck! Hope you enjoyed my goodie cans.

Garbage truck addiction/ Christmas Shopping

My son, Liam is completely addicted on every level to garbage trucks, garbage men, and trash cans. It doesn't matter... real, toys, cheesy 80's movies, books. He loves it all. I find a hard time finding new toys to buy him. Every time a holiday rolls around that's the first thing he ask for is, Garbage Trucks! I had found it difficult to find new things to buy him, because he owns most of them. Christmas is just a 26 short days away!

Here are a few exciting gifts I have found:

This garbage truck pillow is adorable! Such a great price too!

I also found this cute little green dumpster.
I also got him this really cool jack hammer, I really hope I don't regret this decision!

This green garbage truck is really cool, made by Fast Lane.

I also think Bruder's toys makes some amazing garbage trucks, but they are pricey. Well made and large toys. They also have an amazing collection of tractors and other vehicle toys. Good luck shopping. Share come neat gifts, or awesome sales you have stumbled across with me...
