Birthdays-CJ style

This week, we had two birthdays-Miss Charity's and Aunt Carols.  Birthdays at camp can be very interesting...Actually, they are always interesting!  We are easily entertained, and logic says: if you are easy to entertain, might as well entertain cheaply!  Creative minds don't need expensive items to decorate and celebrate!  And though our minds may not be entirely intact (no comments!) they are creative!

  
Decorating the Heritage room for Aunt Carol's birthday.  She almost didn't come to her own birthday meal!  She was trying to hide out in town...tsk, tsk

  
A wild balloon for a lady with a decided wild side!


Miss Charity made this cake for Aunt Carol.  She made it from scratch with homemade butter.  That's impressive!

I don't have any pictures of Miss Charity's b-day.  I decorated the office doors with chalk paint.  My housekeeping sister suggested reserving chalk paint for the summer months, as removing it from the office doors gave her great difficulty, with this cold weather :(

Birthdays are always special...real special!


On my last birthday, Jenna and the girls stayed up all hours of the night decorating the kitchen.  I found these balloons stuffed in my cubby!


For Hannah's birthday, we put on sombreros and sang "Sapo verde eres tu," to the tune of "Happy Birthday."  I know it sounds pretty impressive to the non-Hispanic person.  It actually means "You are a green toad!"  


Ben VP, the little chaparito.  He makes a good Mexican!  Wrong accent, though!
(chaparito is Spanish for little bunny, I think! :) )


Carrying on the Spanish line, Jenna made this cake for my birthday!


One of the summer kitchen girls got this giant gummy bear for her birthday!  

Sapo verde eres tu!
