rock star.



we celebrated cami's eleventh birthday with her band, G-5. (girls-five, buddies who write songs together during recess)

i transformed some old 45s into invites.



and in my "keeping things simple" mode we rented a limo to pick up the girls and took them to a "photo-shoot" for their album cover. then we came back to the house for a sleep over. i don't think there was any sleeping though.
ahh... the life of a rock star.

you are such a rockin mom!Boy do I have a lot to live up to.J/K I must say...Cami stole the show in the video; she is growing up too fast. I remember the old days when I taught her in primary. Those days are long gone:(

Awesome invitations too. I wish I had just a teeny bit of your creativity! Love ya!

Shannon said...

Okay, sorry, I know you don't want to hear it...but you ARE perfect.
Your kids are so lucky to have you for their mom. With your talents and attitude, they are growing up believing anything is possible.
You are "lucky" - they are "luckier". :)

Torrie said...

ahhh, daughter like father..
oh to have two 'rock stars' in the house...must be fun!

btw- i love that song you have with the video, i think i'll put it on my ipod.
hope you and 'the other rock star' got to take a ride in the limo too!

i wish i was a member of G-5! It looks like they (and their band manager...) know how to have a good time! super fun!

happy 11th birthday cami! looks like you partied in style!

Jaime said...

What a lucky lucky girl!! And what COOL parents. Looks like lots of fun. Love the photo too. Can't wait until the album is released. ;)

Lisa Danielson said...

How lucky are your kids!! You never cease to amaze me---you did all of this with your house still under construction??? WOW~

Mark and Jennifer said...

Well now, that was one entertaining video! What a fun party! Nice limo!

mindy said...

You are THE coolest!

gina said...

yeah, you are cool and the BEST idea woman ever but i think i kinda hate you right now, just a tiny bit. kial was reading your blog with me and now my little vegas birthday idea doesn't seem quite as cool as a ride in a limo and ROCK STAR treatment!

you seriously ROCK!

gina said...

oh, one more thing...the invites are AWESOME!!

love ya!

Cami said...

I know, I know, I am awesome, hold your applause, hold your applause. Sana is the one with the sunglasses in the photo, Gigi is hugging her knees, Becky has the coat on, Charlotte (Charli) is behind Sana and beside Becky standing up with her arms folded and I have my hand on my hip and am standing up. Coolio, huh? I know. We are awesome.

Paige said...

I think this one turned out just like you invisioned it, right?
Super fabulous everything.

(and nothing to live up to for next year -- you're making me tired.)

Team Biddle said...

How creative are you? Yup, perfect says it all...you are IT~

kelly said...

i think CRAZY is the word that best describes me.
but thanks peeps! (as cami would say)
and gina you're wrong, the vegas party is gonna be awesome! your parties are the best, hands down.

Lauren said...

How fun! Where do you come up with these ideas? Can you plan my party...I'm turning 30 this June. Feel free to email any ideas to Adam!

Love the gloves, Cami!

Torrie said...

one more thing-
alex wants to know why i didn't do this for him and his band
oops! i guess i thought the ipod classic and the new rock n' roll clothes and dinner in the kitchen at bucaas was enough...
wish me luck for next year- he'll be 15!!!!!

Rosanne said...

How cute. What a fun mom you are. What a fun birthday party Cami had!

Rosanne said...

Kristie said...

Wow, that is all there is to say. I hope my kids never see your blog! anything I do will seem very sad in comparison!

Groverfam said...

You are fabulous! I want to be like you! and i want to be your child. That would be so much fun. Cami is probably still talking about it and her friends will be talking about it for years to come.

Ang said...

Once again, coolest mom EVER!!! Looks like the girls had so much fun!!

Amy and Kelly said...

Ok, I don't spend enough time on my blog and therefore don't look at everyone elses blogs very often so that's why I just saw this post. Great party Cami, good job Kelly! By the way does anyone else think that David Cook reminds them of Rob? We all think that he does at the Ward house!

Pamela said...

Dang woman, you certainly do set the bar quite high! Fab party! When I grow up I wanna be a mom just like you.

Oh wait....

Becky said...

ahhh, i remember this. those were the days.... :)
