Army party - Part 1

There are so many things that I want to share from Preston's birthday party on Saturday, that I am going to do it is small bits....so here's the first part, details.

The cupcakes! No party is complete without cupcakes. The toppers were made on the computer, punched with my circle punch and then attached to toothpicks. Quick and easy, and super cute!

We had a really cute Awards Ceremony at the end of the party where I presented them each with a medal, certificate of "Army Achievement", flag sticker and army tatoos!
