All Day Birthday Celebration for My Sis

This past week my sisters and I all got together to celebrate one of the sister's birthday, Diana, sister #2 of 6. It was a surprise celebration.

She was totally caught off guard...it was a couple weeks of planning behind the scenes to get this event pulled off. Her daughter Natalie and friend Jean hosted the event at their home in Novato. They planned the outing, food and craft project. The project was something we've never done before.

We started with these glass containers...

to build some mini terrariums. Natalie and Jean had a huge table of supplies...

There were mini plants, props, toys, rocks, you name it...it was all there for us to use.

Below are the finished projects. What a fun time we had building these.

Below is a picture of 5 of the 6 sisters. My sister Lana was unable to make it today, as she was leaving for France the next day.

Next up was a shopping excursion in Natalie and Jean's Mercedes Sprinter. We got chauffeured around town in this luxury transportation that they own.

We were riding in style...

One of our stops, Liquid Marin...

Short break back at the house for birthday cake.

Then we were off again, now to Japan Town for shopping at Japanese dollar stores... 

and ramen for dinner!

Wow, that was another fun sister celebration. Thanks to Nat and Jean for hosting a terrific party!

As a side note, I finally got some pictures posted on Pinterest - lots of repins...but it's a start of things I favorite: http://pinterest.com/constancefong/pins/.
