Happy Birthday, Buster!
Our son's birthday is the day after Christmas, so we always get to celebrate big two days in a row at our house.
And every year, we make fun birthday banners of the kids' favorite things to celebrate their big day. I love seeing how excited they get when they see a special banner made just for them! And here's our son's for this year:
Amazing, right?! Well, I have a confession to make. I didn't make this awesome airplane banner. My husband did!
We got very behind on getting ready for Christmas and his birthday because of a hectic month of good and bad news in the family. So while I was wrapping gifts a few days before Christmas, I told Jim how overwhelmed I was with how much there was still left to do. So he just started making the airplane banner for me! (I have a keeper!)
God bless his heart, being an engineer, he measured everything with a ruler and even asked me for a protractor. But in the end, he got it done, and it looks great! (And he didn't even use Pinterest ;)
And now that I know he can do this, he's making the kids' birthday banners every year. ;)
What are your family's special birthday traditions?
P.S. Tomorrow for the Tuesday Talk link up, I'll be posting the recipe for his delicious Whipped Lemon Cake with Berries pictured above. Come back tomorrow to check it out and link up your post!
