Printable Birthday Banner Cake Topper

6.29.2015

Printable Birthday Banner Cake TopperI don’t love cake. I know, I know, I’m crazy. I can easily pass up a piece of cake, a cupcake, or a slice of pie. I typically will only eat one or two bites of a cupcake before the sugar makes my tummy hurt (poor baby). Unless it’s red velvet or cheesecake, in which case I will eat the whole thing. After which, I will sit in pain for an hour just knowing I had a few bites of deliciousness. I’d much rather have a cheeseburger. At least I won’t feel regret. Unless it wasn’t on par. Then I will feel regret that I didn’t just go to In n Out instead.

Today is a special day in my blogosphere: it is my friend Nad’s (from Hugs x Heart) birthday! Since she lives on the other side of the world, I have to celebrate by showing her a picture of cupcakes, instead of delivering them to her place. I don’t think they’d survive in the mail, otherwise I’d try, trust me.

So in honor of Nad, this printable birthday banner is here! Although I’d like to give Nad the world, I actually didn’t make this myself. You can download your free glitterized birthday banner on TaterTots and Jello‘s website. Click here for the direct link. It was too cute not to share.

And just for you Nad, I helped myself to a giant cheeseburger too!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAD!

    This is a cute idea! I remember my mum created something similar for a “welcome home” cake for me once, very effective!! Happy Birthday to your friend too!

    I’ve currently quit eating all sugary foods, which pretty much includes most chocolate and most desert items like these cupcakes. Seeing these has made my mouth water! Jesus they look lovely! Especially the frosting on top!

      Wow!!! So what kind of foods have you taken up eating?! We tried to do a no-carb thing for a few weeks, and it was successful, but then I started craving sugar foods, and I don’t normally eat them at all!

Why yes, I do. 🤣🤣🤣

One of my favorite things we get to give our girls One of my favorite things we get to give our girls is perspective. To see new places. To meet different people. To experience cultures outside of their own.

Not so they grow up thinking one place is “better” than another — but so they grow up curious, grateful, and grounded. And the more of the world we see, the more thankful I become for home, for the freedoms we have, and for the life we get to build together. 

Flag tees from @sweet_peas_and_sweeties - they’re selling fast so grab yours before they’re gone!
I might be the world’s worst “influencer,” because I might be the world’s worst “influencer,” because I’m here to tell you this: you do not need a whole new wardrobe for vacation.

Social media makes it feel like every trip requires new outfits, a new summer closet, a new date-night dress…but honestly? It doesn’t.

I’m willing to bet you already have plenty of great options hanging in your closet. And instead of spending a bunch of money on clothes you’ll probably only wear once, maybe it’s enough to just wear what you already love.
One day, instead of hearing little feet running th One day, instead of hearing little feet running through the house all day, I’ll be leaving voicemails hoping they call me back when they have time.

The sticky fingerprints will wash away, the car seats will come out, bedtime routines will end, and the house that once felt so loud will get quieter little by little.

It’s strange how the things that exhaust you in the moment become the very things you ache for later. 🤍
When did it become expected to spend hundreds of d When did it become expected to spend hundreds of dollars on Teacher Appreciation gifts? Don’t get me wrong, if it were in the budget you better believe it’s worth it. I am not advocating for giving them LESS, I’m just advocating for staying within your families budget. And maybe if we see more of these easy little inexpensive gifts, we can make it more acceptable to gift within budget. Because that’s what it’s all about. 

What’s that saying? It’s the thought that counts.
I’ve been seeing so many reels lately saying that I’ve been seeing so many reels lately saying that Mother’s Day is only for moms with small children. I couldn’t disagree more. To me, Mother’s Day is not just about me. It’s about the women who helped shape me, as a mother, a woman, a friend. It’s about my friends who help me be a better mother, even if they don’t have little kids themselves. It’s about my own mother, who is the biggest inspiration for me, to be a better mother myself. It’s about the many generations before me that allowed me to be a mother at all. It’s about every woman in my life that loves me and my girls as if they’re their own. That’s who I’ll be celebrating this Mother’s Day.

What are your kids always finding for you?
There’s something rare about being fully known and There’s something rare about being fully known and still fully loved. No shrinking yourself. No editing your personality.
Just being met where you are. That kind of friendship changes you.
It’s just a little walk… It’s just a little walk…
