Hello, my name's Pete and ever since I began dating my partner Kellie 5 years ago I've been making her illustrations based on our lives together, to capture the funny things we say and do. For the first few years no one except Kellie saw them but last year we decided to set up an Instagram page and since then we've been gradually building up a small and loyal following of super lovely, kind people. We've been overwhelmed by how positive and warm the support is.

Tons of superhero party games to make your kids superhero birthday party AWESOME!
We have more than settled into our place in Hampton, Virginia. It has now become our home complete with school events, sporting events, playgroups, friends, birthday parties, weekend BBQs, photography sessions, and a part time job for myself. I've just recently been able to sit long enough to convert my own family pictures from RAW to JPEG with the intent to finally print some and get them hung on our walls. Believe it or not, I have not a single framed picture in this house. So many of our precious memories are stored away on my external hard drive but here are a few of our recent moments. Easter 2014 This year, Matthew's birthday fell on Easter Sunday. We had a special birthday breakfast, donuts with a candle, and held his birthday party the following weekend. Looking a little serial killer-ish. Looking a little mental institutional-ish. There we go, much cuter. Craft projects allow for a rare moment of peace and quiet. Well, until something goes wrong. There is no doubt where Nicholas, the kid on the right, gets his temper. Home girl over here is going to have to teach him how to reel it in. What can I say? We are just passionate people. And passionate people often receive funny looks from others. By the way, we were eating egg salad for a week. Easter morning was a mixture of birthday presents from us and baskets from the Easter bunny. Matthew isn't exactly athletic and so we were stunned when he took an interest in archery. After spending one day shooting at a Tiger Scout camp, he was hooked. OK, isn't this awful? This is what an Easter basket/picture looks like for your first born. And this is what an Easter basket/picture looks like for your third born. "Oh, shit! We forgot to put together a basket for Atticus. Here, throw some things around him and snap a picture so he'll never know should he decide to look back years from now." Don't judge me =) The archery set was a hit. I had an odd feeling in my heart when we piled outside to hunt for Easter eggs. Matthew looked so big holding his basket. It really hit me that my little boy was 7 and that the years of enjoying certain activities are numbered. How many years will it take before he no longer wants to dye Easter eggs, or stops believing in the Easter bunny, the tooth fairy, or Santa? I'm not a big crier but I had to stop and choke back some emotion as I saw him take off in his quest for hidden eggs. Oh, shit. We forgot the baby again. Hold on, let's snap a quick picture to show that he was involved. I mean, really. Who needs Easter eggs when you can have this cool, crushed, plastic water bottle to play with instead. Easter wouldn't have been complete without testing out the new archery set. Matthew Turns 7!!!! I used to be awesome at planning birthday parties. Well, I was awesome until I had more than one kid. The first one had a custom cake like this The second child had a Walmart cake. In my defense, he did get a smash cake. And the third child received a Walmart cake......bought two weeks after his birthday.......by his grandparents.....and fed the cake on the kitchen floor. Which he flippin' hated. I made a promise to myself that 2014 was going to be different. I was going to throw my kids pinterest worthy birthday parties. First up, Matthew's superhero themed party. I often hear other moms talk about how OCD they are. It's usually followed with, "No, I'm serious. I'm so OCD, it's crazy." Well, when you start drawing out the decorations for your kids' birthday parties, come talk to me. I'm not kidding. I know, I have issues. Just do what my husband does. Sit back and enjoy the ride. There is a method to my madness. Here we go: 1. Superhero puff balls: I made the large puff balls out of tissue paper and the signs out of cardstock. Here is a puff ball tutorial. 2. Cityscape You could use something sturdy and cheap like OSB board but I wanted something easier. After trying and failing to locate a large cardboard box, a girlfriend came across a huge water heater box which I gladly took off her hands. I took it apart at the seams, painted it black, and used a Cricut to cut out different size rectangles and squares from yellow cardstock. 3. Superhero Garland Honestly, if you don't already have a ton of cardstock, just go ahead and buy premade garland. It will probably be cheaper. Being that I always have an obscene amount of cardstock, I went ahead and made my garland. I used the Cricut and printer to create the superhero symbols and bought cheap ribbon from Walmart to connect it all. 4. Buffet Table Risers I learned, through pinterest, that interesting buffet tables have elements of varying height. Therefore, I should incorporate some buffet risers to add optical interest. Alrighty....... I bought 4 small square mailing packages from Walmart for $1 each. I covered them with strips from comic books found around $1 each at a thrift store. 5. Kryptonite Candy Buffet Containers This was a hefty initial investment and by hefty I mean around $25. However, I have already used the containers for another birthday party and will continue to use them until they break. I used photoshop to render the comic shapes and connected them to ribbon with hot glue. Before After The large superhero logos hanging around the room were the product of a past project. They are usually hanging in Nicholas's bedroom but we pulled them for the party. They photograph pretty well! We had more than enough food to go around. I decided to have one table dedicated to actual food as well as a candy buffet. I really loved my buffet table risers and pinterest was right. They do add visual interest to a table. We can't forget the goody bags. Matthew's party was an absolute success. Him and his friends had such a wonderful time and the adults did as well. I wasn't 100% satisfied with the cake but the kids loved it and that's all that mattered. Lets face it. Planning and hosting parties can be stressful. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute spent with our guests but it was also nice to have some family time afterwards. In the middle of a cornhole game, we simply decided it was time to cut Atticus's hair. Atticus is one gorgeous baby. We ended the day with a campfire and smores. Nana's very first smore! I saved the party decorations and put them to good use. One party down and two more to go. ~Cheryl

Hello My name is Laura and I’m addicted to birthday parties. You can ask just about anyone that knows me and they will confirm. I go a little over the top when it comes to party planning. I j…
So this is where I get to spend some valuable time with some pretty awesome people! This is a view from the doorway to the "front" of my room. I don't know why I call it the front but that's it's title and it's too much to change it now lol!! I did this over my door on the hallway side to kind of go with my pinch of a superhero theme. Not really into the whole full blown theme these days. I just seemed to get tired of looking at it the entire year. But I like a little novelty to get the kiddos excited. Not sure who first started this behavior chart system, but I am loving it for my class! I've been doing it for a few years and just made this new one for this year. I love the idea of rewarding those sweethearts that are just always found doing what they are suppose to be doing!! When they make it to Amazing, they get a jewel on their pin. You would have thought it was a priceless gem!! I also added in a reward on each of the move ups. They LOVE it! Wish I had one more level up from Superhero but too late to change it now. Maybe next year! These are my birthday baskets!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this idea that I totally snagged from another blogger (can't remember who, but THANK YOU)!! I have a basket for boys and one for girls. I only keep about 5 in each one at any given time. They have inexpensive prizes in them that I pick up throughout the year at Dollar Tree or wherever! If they have a birthday in July, they get to pick one our first week in school. If they have a birthday in June, they get to pick one before we leave for summer break! Not totally thrilled with this yet. Needed to add some pop on the boring cabinets and needed a place to anchor my number words. Used wrapping paper from Wal-Mart as the background and then laminated it all! My calendar and math manipulative area! Use this EVERY morning with our math notebooks! Student cubby areas for their art boxes and big ole science and social studies textbooks! Just dishpans from WM and used our Silhouette to make the student numbers. Birthday banner bulletin board and places to park the paper trail of parent notes, student handouts, and the like. My HUGE desk that was a thrift store find on the cheap and it was in perfect condition. Even has the L for a computer.....if I had one! Another view of the front! Not sure if you can make out the name hangers from my ceiling. Each child has one and someday soon we will have some fabulous art work hanging down! Can't wait! Another view! Notice all the empty wall space for upcoming charts and student work! Bulletin board in the hallway that no one but my class ever sees :( ! Our character this week!! Arthur from our reading series story Arthur's Reading Race! Superhero job chart! Thanks Pinterest! A job for everyone. All 14 of them! Our classroom library! I sooo struggle with organization here! Another view of my desk area that I house stuff! High frequency word wall! Small group area that is behind my desk! Station rotation chart. We have 10 stations. Each student goes to two stations every day for 30 minutes. I would really love to paint this monster of a file cabinet, but it is most likely waxed to the floor and I'm sure it weighs like a billion pounds! Portable stations! Spelling and high frequency words for the week! Well, that's about it! I am really out of my comfort zone sharing my classroom! I know there are so many teachers with rooms that should be in magazines or something, so click on the link below and enjoy theirs! https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9N6DTHw557mr34Ts8A_HxQ4YDThUH-E4PK7JbKpU0eYdkjsSRFsmXe4kGVUUvjDIgp7mSzESSZ3vzk79tlQV-BTviGfPHVdfs7tSlKsMSUeJxQ-ve6t_1mHa2uDasR3GX6gckAif6C7Y/s1600/Blog+Hoppin+BTS-02.png

'Tis the season for hall decoration. First place will undoubtedly go to the Seniors for their magnificent "Jurassic Park" hallway in Pod A. The vines are just gorgeous. One thing about the "Spirit Days" that makes me sad: Grunge Day, according to the students in charge, is a day to wear "grungy clothes." C'mon, people. Haven't you heard of Nirvana?
