August 22nd: Cosmic Hula Hoop Party




We recently celebrated Zailey's 7th birthday and Selah's 2nd with
a COSMIC HULA HOOP & CRAZY SOCK Party!Zailey wanted a hula hoop party, and we added our own twist to it. I decided to make a lot of the party items with help from the friends and family, and I couldn't have done it without their help. A huge "THANKS" to my party planners/assistants! ☺ All the projects turned out awesome and are featured on a craft blog that I've been doing with my sister, Gina. So if you'd like to take a peek at some of the things we've done, we're {two little chickadees}.

For one of our party crafts, we made and decorated hula hoops! My sweet husband, Michael, made approximately 20 hula hoops out of irrigation tubing. Phew! That's a lot! He's such a good sport and is always so patient with my crazy ideas. He's a keeper! ♥

The kids really enjoyed decorating their hoops with electrical tape and stickers and putting their own "spin" on them. We borrowed cosmic lights from our friend who's family used to own a bowling alley that hosted comic bowling nights. SCORE!!! We hung homemade disco balls that added just the right touch to a stellar night! Everyone wore a pair of crazy fun mismatched socks and glow necklaces. And when it finally got dark, we turned off the lights, cranked up the music and hula hooped to our hearts content! We even caught Grammy doing a few hula hoop tricks!
What a fun time!

"HOOP" you enjoyed your special day!
Happy Birthday, Zailey & Selah!
