Postcards from the Ledge (of the rooftop in Paa-Ree)

While I've been sick of late I've been working on a party theme for lil'A's 2nd birthday next month - 2 & 1/2 weeks actually. She has so many boy cousins and a few girl friends. A Tinkerbell party just wouldn't work. Too bad, I'm a Tink gal myself and was hoping for one. Oh well, maybe next year.

Finding a gender neutral theme that was unique took a long time to find. Then it occurred to me, lil'A has been watching one Pixar movie even more than Tink lately. (Maybe that's because I've put it away for a while). No, not Cars. No, not The Incredibles, or Toy Story.

Paris and French cooking. Yup... RATATOUILLE. She's been begging to see it for 2 months. But then last week it changed to "Games, games!". She even learned "GO CANADA GO!!!". She's an Olympic-Gal. However, I'm sure "Touille" will be requested again very soon.

I didn't realize how creative this theme could be. Invitations are the first to go. Why not take it a step further to a postcard with a recipe on the back. Those of you in the "cuzzies" list (and you parents know who these peeps are) should be seeing a postcard in the mail Friday I'm guessing.

I found this great image for the pic. I spent hours looking. Was just about to use a typical Paris image but this was too good to pass up.


This is what the back looks like.
Was planning on writing more but the movie just ended and it's time for lil'A's nap before "Gan & Gampa" come over to go to Garry Point park to see the Martin Mars water bomber.

Oh yeah, I'm sure you can guess which movie I'm about to power off. YUP!!!!!!!!!!!

Olympics are a hit here. (I'll type as the long credits go). Lil'A and I took a tour around the O|Zone the other day and she was so excited. Was mighty cold but fun. Course I sang on Feb 9th for torch too.

Credits over and lil'A is actually reminding ME that's it's "Ni-Ni Time".

Lost thought:
