Adam's Birthday!

So, my baby is 9. Next year starts the double digits. Where, oh where, has the time gone? Sigh.

Anyway... here are the invites I made for his party.


Cool robot kit is from Designer Digitals. I made these in Photoshop and then printed them out and stuck them in the mail. Pretty easy.

Now want to see his noisy gift?


It's messy too...


But cute...


Not cuddly...


Friendly...


Blue...


Two legs...


Meet Pete!


His full name is Pete the Colorful Parakeet Tweetinator. Or Pete the Tweetinator Colorful Parakeet, the order hasn't been decided yet.
Uh, yeah. We just call him Pete. :)

Adam had a nice party yesterday. Very casual, lots of fun. Just the family. It was a lot less stressful than trying to do a friend party.

Anyway, hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Tomorrow is challenge day and it's going to be cool! Our first ever sponsored challenge! Woo-hoo!

Pin It!

You are a genius with digital type programs Dani. I seriously have to rack my brains trying to figure some of this digital stuff out. *lol*
Your invitations are super cool and perfect for a 9 yr. old boy! I think your gift is awesome as well...and what a pretty bird!
hugs

Adam's invite is darling! The robots are so cute! So glad he had a nice birthday and I'm sure he really loved getting Pete!

Aaaack!! SO CUTE!! I used to have 2 parakeets...a blue one just like this and a yellow one. They ♥ed each other, but I accidentally opened the door while he was out and---whew! Off he flew. Just make sure you keep his wings clipped unless you don't plan on taking him out of his cage ☺
