CReATE Studio~

We were so busy in June that we ended up doing Mikayla's birthday party with her friends in July. She chose to have it at a crafty place called CReATE Studio.  It started with a stay-at-home mom who used her garage and old stuff, junk, recyclables and let kids come and make crafts out of them.  Now she has a real studio and tons more junk and craft supplies.  The kids love it because you can make a huge mess and it doesn't matter.  For parties she gives them one craft to do and then lets them do whatever they want for the rest of the time and the kids all love it.  They were all so creative and the cutest part is that they talked and chatted the whole time and we got to be flies on the wall.=)  Very different from parties when she was 5,6,7,etc., but kind of nice to just sit back and watch.
Landen loved painting!  He made 4 pictures.  

He used a lot of green=)


Zach used old plastic toy pieces to make a robot.  He enjoyed listening to the girl talk too.=)

Most of her BFFs!


Her fave, pizza! Isn't she a beauty!?!

A place for splatter paint

Mikayla goes to school with Meg and Ed is her choir teacher. We've gotten to know their whole family this summer. Really is a small world!
