This adorable ARCHERY THEMED BIRTHDAY PARTY was submitted by Michelle Chung. What an awesome party. I love all of the bright and fun archery colors. I also love how everything is associated with the shape and colors of a target; it's such a cute ideas. This party would be perfect for a tween party or even a Disney's Brave Themed Party. This is what Michelle said about planning the party- "I'm so excited about the colors of Archery - white, black, blue, red and yellow. Every element of the party was bright and the room was full of color. This party is great for both boys and girls. My daughter loves archery and we knew this would be a unique party for her friends. It's an interest she loves sharing. The party started with a one hour archery lesson followed by a fun dinner and dessert". My favorite Archery party ideas and elements from this charming birthday celebration are: The wonderful girl archer cookies on little eisels The fun archery colored candies The cute bow and arrow cookies The target backdrop, arrows and feathers The awesome birthday banner The cute target place settings

So my baby Birdie turned 9 just last week, and she wanted to have a Minecraft themed birthday party. Minecraft is a computer game that is all kinds of fun, her new obsession, and the source of several very important life lessons for her. Maybe, if she gives me permission, I will tell y'all that tale... but suffice it to say, she got a good lesson in giving out info online, Griefers, using her mama's YouTube account without permission, and general Internet safety and protocol. Luckily, no actual damage was done during the experiencing of those lessons, and I am quite frankly glad to have had that lesson so well learned at such a relatively low cost. Anyways... the Bird-day! First off, the invitations: the top looked like this... That's a Creeper, one of the monsters that you battle in-game. It hisses, then it blows you up. This is clever, I promise. The inside of the card said: My name is Birdie, I am turning 9! You are invited to my party being held in a Mine. We will battle spiders and zombies and creepers so sneaky we will eat cake and slime balls you might think it's geeky but it's really a MINECRAFT PARTY! Next, even though in the game Minecraft, you can actually make a cake that looks like this, what she wanted was a Creeper Cake, so after much planning and research I made one. It took three 9x13 cakes, and two batches of buttercream frosting to do the job... but I did it! (Pearl loves Creepers too! Especially French Vanilla Creepers!) I used a can of spray-on food coloring to make the subtle block pattern on the frosting, and a little bit of store bought fondant dyed black for the face and toes. The homemade fondant tastes so much better, but I was already up to my ears in stuff to do. Next I used some electrical tape to turn our kitchen table into a Minecraft "Crafting Table" where the cake was consumed and also where the kids made their "sword", "pick", and "torch" for using down in the "mine." (also pictured are an example of a pick and sword) Let me tell you how the party went.... Yes. You do get the blow-by-blow account because I am excruciatingly proud of this party that was a labor of love by all of us in Chaos, mostly Birdie and I. First, the guests gathered, and since not every one on the planet knows what the heck Minecraft is (the game is still in it's Beta mode) we let the kids watch a short, introductory clip about how to survive your first night in the game. The clip also was a good explanation for how the party proceeded. First, we had them go into the kitchen where they harvested a block of wood (a piece of brown paper from the "trees" on the wall), which they then took to the crafting table to trade for a packet that included a cardboard pick head, a cardboard sword and four craft sticks. They covered the pick and sword in foil and then we "crafted" the items using the covered cardboard forms and some of the sticks with tape and leaving one "stick" left over. Next we went to the "coal" pinata that I had made by filling an empty Costco size Cheerio box with crumpled black paper bits of "coal" and some packs of Poprocks, just for funsies. (Hint: next time I would skip the poprocks! Messy! Garrr!) Since it is February and cold as the dickens out there, we tried to minimise the damage of doing this indoors, and so did not blindfold the kids for this activity! (the green box is a Zombie Helmet used for Zombie Tag) Afterward, the kids traded their last stick and their bit of "coal" for a dollarstore flashlight and some batteries. Viola! Torch! And the kids got to use all these items for the party and take them home as well. Next, we tanked them all up on cake and milk drunk from silver cups (metal minecraft buckets), and green slime balls (scoops of lime sherbet) to replenish all of our energy and "life" before we ventured downstairs to "mine" and "do battle" with the monsters down there. There was Zombie Tag, Pin the Skull On the Skeleton and Spider Races. (Birdie made the Skeleton game herself!) Open gifts. Lots of leftover cake. The End. Except for Lilac's birthday party that is next week. Zhu Zhu Pets. Whuf.
