Cameron with the Elmo Pinata

I found an Elmo Pinata @ the Dollar Store of all places. I was looking all over for a Cookie Monster Pinata, but not even Sesame Street on line had one. I had to settle for Elmo, which Cameron loves too. I got the string Pinata since Cameron was not going to be swinging a bat & also thought it would be safer for all those involved. I had no idea how full we could stuff that pinata with candy. I looked all over for cute bags for the kids & none of the ones I found I liked. So, I made my own. I bought paper lunch bags, printed Cameron's Birthday Pic then underneath I put "Cameron's 1st Birthday Party, June 6, 2009". I pasted it on the bags & I was done. I thought they turned out quite good considering. The Pinata was a hit...take a look!
