Birthday Balloons and Target Obsession

I immediately feel in love with those birthday balloon ideas on Pinterest! I've seen them with pixie sticks, HUGE pixie sticks, and straws. Considering I couldn't find pixie sticks anywhere {seriously! I checked the grocery store, 2 drug stores, Target, and Wal-Mart} and I don't want to spend a bunch of money on fancy straws, I used pencils instead. {Sorry about the picture quality...my iPhone is acting up} 

I don't remember where I got the balloons from, but I'm sure you can search Pinterest and find plenty of free ones! Also, if you know where these are from, let me know so I can give credit!


While I was getting the pencils at Target, I couldn't resist buying a bunch of office supplies in the dollar section. I am in love with yellow and gray. In fact, those are my wedding colors {if I can convince my fiance}. I admit....I am officially obsessed with the dang dollar section. I don't even think it was a week ago that I last went...And for those of you with perfect eye sight reading this part.... I admit that I went to 3 different Targets to find all of these items. Eeeeekkkk!


Pleeeeeeeeease tell me you're just as obsessed!!!

  5. Since I can read that tiny print... here is my confession to ease your guilt. I drive for an hour to visit the Target dollar section. I stalk blogs for Target sales. I have been known to drive 2 hours to find the items I want and visit 4 targets in a day. There I admit! JUST DON'T SHARE MY SECRET!!

    Everyone who is reading this... my 8 year old assures me I can erase all of your memories by saying "I erase your memory you saw nothing." Ahh... now its a secret again.
