The Twelfth Day of Christmas: Grinch Party!

Welcome! Since it is our Twelfth Day, I thought it would be fitting to go out with a party! Recently, I gave my Ginger Grand a Grinch party. Ever since he was a baby, he has been a fan of the Grinch. I decided to set it up in the garden and surprised him--he loved it! Our "party" consisted of just the two of us, but this would be fun with a group of kids. Pre-schoolers could even help with some of the preparations. I set the table with a bright red snowflake tablecloth that had a Dr. Seuss-ish look about it. The felt Christmas tree headband pictured on the chair reminded me of the big tree in the book. It was a "new" thrift find meaning it still had its tags and hadn't been worn. Honestly, I wasn't too sure if GG would go for this, but he wore it nonstop until he went to bed!
