Here's Your Sign.. First Day!

Yesterday was the Mini Hippos first day of school.. I can't believe it.. I know own a 

and a 

and of course a 

Seriously.. this is just crazy.. my littlest hippo CANNOT be in KINDERGARTEN!  
Well anyway, I kept seeing all these super cute ideas for First day of school signs and decided that this year I just HAD to have some for my kids!  So after raiding my overly abundant stash.. I came up with these!

Now even without a stash you could easily make them with a wood or even cardboard background, paper stencil and the cutter of your choice or even just a printed font.  

For these, I painted the bases and stencils.

  Next I used my Cricut to cut out my words.

Then I Mod Podged the heck out of it,

glued the stencil over the top and embellished them!

And of course, last I grabbed the kids and took FULL advantage of this wonderful photo op.  

Serious.

Silly

And of course Upside down!

Best first day of school pictures.. EVER... or atleast in 

Pink Hippo Land!

I also got behind the camera so you wouldn't see me cry.. anyone have some tissues?  
My babies are growing up WAAAAYYY to fast! 
I am sharing with these fun parties!

Love,
