"facebook" birthday photo wall

My sweet husband had a birthday over the weekend.  He isn't into big parties, doesn't eat dessert, and generally buys himself the things he wants these days, so finding the right way to celebrate can be hard.

One thing Jared does love is friends and family.  So I asked them all to email me a photo of themselves holding a happy birthday sign, had the pictures printed in a large size, and stuck them all up on the wall in the middle of the night.

Jared woke up to a birthday greeting from everyone he loves.  I wasn't thinking about it as I put it together, but Jared commented that it was like a real, live Facebook wall!  Kind of fun, especially since he is not on Facebook.

For my family photos, I made some fun little party hats using the template at Oh Happy Day.  I glued some pretty papers to plain white cardstock before cutting them out with the template.  Very easy and festive!
