Birthday Butterfly title



BD8V 12

I have nicknames for all our grandchildren ~ and this is
our little butterfly ~ she fits the name perfectly ~

BD8V 1


She wanted a FLIP-FLOP theme for her birthday party.


BD8V 2


~ the plates ~


BD8V 13


~ place setting ~

BD8V 11

Name tags were attached to the yummy cake pops.

BD8V 4

The centerpiece was extraordinary . . .

BD8V 5 r rs 

BD8V 6

BD8V 7

. . . complete with flip-flops, shells and brown sugar "sand" ~

BD8V 15


I forgot to uncover the sandbuckets in the centerpiece
before I took the pictures ~ they were filled with goodies.

 BD8V 8

We were told we could wear flip-flips;
some did and many didn't ~

BD8V 9

One granddaughter even wore a skirt with flip-flops on it.


BD8V 3


We sang a song before the prayer of thanks for the meal.

 BD8V 10

BD8V 14

We were served a scrumptious buffet brunch of biscuits and gravy,

ham, breakfast casserole and fresh fruit.

 BD8V 16

Gift time brought a few new butterflies . . .

BD8V 17

. . . and brand new flip-flops! 

BD8V 18

~ the pillow matches her chocolate and hot pink bedroom ~

Our grandchildren bring us so much joy

and it is such a blessing to share in their lives.
We love you, grandkiddos!

I used this verse not too many posts ago, but it bears repeating:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Children’s children are the crown of old men . . .”
(and old ladies too!)

Proverbs 17:6

Very creative party decor! She is a precious little sweetie for sure! I just was visiting ABRAM's site and reading about her spending time with her little grandson. Your scripture is so true! Grandmas are blessed! I am so thankful for my grandchildren as well. They are a joy! I wish I lived closer to them. We are all of us in different countries! I am praying for a way to be able to go to N. Ireland for the birth of my fourth grandchild in October. That would be lovely! I am thankful for SKYPE which keeps us connected and gives the kids a chance to SEE us.

@DanishDoll - I hope you DO get to go to Ireland for the baby's birth ~ it is hard to be far away from children and grandchildren ~

I love the idea of having a nickname for each grandchild. I'd better get busy coming up with some!! What a cute party theme for your sweet little grand-girlie gal!
