Happy Birthday Luke--- Thing 1 and Thing 2 Dr. Suess

Gwamma is so happy and so sad....Yep, today is the day. My little grandson Lukey is having his first birthday party...and I am not there! What a sad Gwamma I am...I have had and extreme cough/cold/crud thing for over a month and decided yesterday that it would not be a nice thing to pass this on to a full house of partiers and my sweet Lukey too. You know I could not keep my hands of my little boys and would have to give them lots of keeezus!
So here I sit, with a bowl of oaties and a tissue wishing I were there :(...

But technology to the rescue...Having techie kids is just plain wonderful. My son will take pics and my daughter is going to skype me when the party begins, so I can at least see Lukey with his birthday cake. That makes me feel better already!

I googled Dr Suess to find these fun svg's to use for this invite along with the Boys will be Boys cricut cartridge for the kite. If you are a little rusty on your Dr Suess facts (like me) Thing 1 and Thing 2 like to run through the house with their kites, causing mayhem wherever they go. I think that is a fitting description of both Cole and Luke! You can find this svg HERE and HERE.  My daughter wrote the clever poem on the back., Dr Suess style!

Tomorrow I will show you the card I made for Lukey's birthday along with a pic of the birthday boy, so stay tuned! On Monday I will be passing off my Amber Inks Purple torch as well, so check back in to see who will be running with the torch next......

  6. My kids, now 30 and 35 loved Dr. Seuss! Still do, I think...lol! I'm so sorry that you won't get to be at the party (sad face here), but glad that the kids are going to Skype you, so you won't miss it! Great card, Sue - what a good idea you had! Hugs...

  7. Oh, Gramma, sorry you had to miss little Lukes big day.....can't believe he is one already! But your probably right in not wanting to pass it around to a group of kids.

    The invite is so cute, and I see that your daughter inherited her Mom's creativity!

    You'll just have to make a special trip to see those boys when your feeling better....hope that's soon.

    Hugs
    Sue
