Happy Birthday Elmo


 Today we had the joy of spending the morning and well into the afternoon with one of the greatest groups of friends there is. Many of you already know that I am a member of a local mom's group called The MOMS Club of Villa Rica. It is a support group for stay at home moms. I have been a member of this group for 5 plus years now. We have all kinds of wonderful playgroups and outings. We also do some really cool service projects for our community.

Well today we had a Birthday Party for Elmo! Of course it included all kinds of wonderful things like party foods, crafts, games, and of course birthday cupcakes! It was a wonderful event that my friend Nappo went way over the top with! She decorated that house in Sesame Street items and party things and it was just wonderful! I have to say it is something that we had not done in a while!


We made the creations shown in the top photo out of empty toilet paper tolls and just a printed template. They were so simple that we just cut them out and glued them onto the rolls. The information on how to make them can he found here. Sesame Street Craft We also played a Dorothy Game where we had to toss Dorothy, Elmo's pet fish, back into her bowl. It was just a super great day!


If you are a new mom or even an experienced mom I encourage you to find a group like I did full of such wonder women. They have been there for me on so many occasions, birth, death, hardships, and illnesses. We lean on each other and we learn from each other and we help each other but mostly we just have a really great time together!

Until next time!
