ic Kathe With an E: Happy Birthday Mr. B

Happy Birthday Mr. B

Mr. B turned another year older this week!  
It doesn't make us any closer in age, I'll always be older and I'm okay with that.

Since I have some free time on my hands, (although, I have had interviews in the last couple of weeks so, keep those prayers coming please) I decided to surprise him by decorating it up for his special day.
/
I was able to find everything I needed at The Dollar Tree and Party City.
/
I decided to use his favorite color, red, as the main theme.
/
No fancy dishes and cloth napkins this time.  I wanted it to be plain and simple but, still festive.
/
I made cupcakes and used a stand I had found at Goodwill ages ago.
/

/ 
Mr. B's favorite cake is Angel Food with egg white frosting.  The frosting is homemade.  The cake is store bought. He's okay with that thank goodness!
I found the S cake topper on a trip to Hobby Lobby on clearance.
/
I filled an apothecary jar with sparkly red grass, and placed some helium balloons here and there.
/
A happy Birthday banner made a great runner for the table.
/
/
I'm pleased to say, he was very surprised!  
He loved it and thought it was really fun. 
I know the decor runs on the kiddy side but, 
although he's getting older, 
Mr. B is always a kid at heart!

Happy Birthday Honey!
