[yikes-mailchimp form=”1″ submit=”Submit”]My great nephew Xander turned one at the end of February. Levi turned 2 on the same day! Great Grandma Juwi got to come visit too!! The theme for his party was hot air balloons. My niece did a wonderful job with the decorations.
Now that you have seen the birthday Boys let me show you the card I made for Xander.
For the Center balloon I punched out 3 of the larger balloons with the Have a Cuppa Paper stack and put them together by folding all in half and gluing them to each other and then gluing them to the cardstock so they stand out. I then adhered a small piece of bakers twine just under the tip of the bottom of the balloon.

An update on my brother and his family: The insurance still have not said what they are going to do about the house. He has been able to take car of the two cars. They will hopefully have a place to live in the next few days close to home. Keep the prayers coming. With the rainfall we are expecting the next few days he will need them. We are hoping there will not be any flooding, it is bad enough that there are holes and roof damage.
