MrBeans turned the big '3-0' this month, and although he said he didn't want to do anything special, I knew that it wouldn't be a very special birthday if it went uncelebrated. So I threw him a surprise birthday party at one of his favorite restaurants!
Maybe this isn't very crafty, but I really enjoyed "creating" the favors for his party. At www.jonessoda.com you can customize bottles of soda with your uploaded pictures. I borrowed a couple of toddler pictures from his mom and ordered two cases of soda. I was nervous about the quality of the scanned images, but they came out perfectly! Everyone at the party raved. I picked root beer and berry lemonade, which is now my favorite because it reminds me of eating blue freezer pops as a kid! Although shipping was a little high (hey, none of the bottles broke!), these were totally worth the memories and mementos that they created!
That is so AWESOME! I had no idea that you could do that :D
ReplyDeleteI'll have to keep that in mind for my 21st this year(I hope to have a big bash since it's the big 2-1).
I'm glad you all had a great time at the party-Please tell your husband Happy Birthday for me!
Happy 30th Birthday to Mr. Beans! I love the personalized soda idea. Very cool.
