On Saturday, we had two parties. A morning party for ae and her friends. Then an after nap party for the family. As busy and hectic as the day was, it was so much fun. She was so excited. The whole night before, she helped me prepare for the parties. She was so wound up and excited!
First thing Saturday morning, I hear ae yelling from her big girl bed, "Mommy, is it time for my party yet?" So we got up, cleaned up, baked cupcakes and then we were all set for the party.
We played in several different play areas around the house, such as: play-doh, Mr. Potato Head, Tunnels, Race Cars, Book Tent, and Sit and Spin. We also decorated our own cupcakes. It was so funny to watch the kids. They were much more intersted in the bowls of icing rather than the actual cupcakes. I should have just gave each child their own bowl of icing and let them go at it. I am sure that the parents would have loved that. Then Daddy and Tim brought in the Pizza and bread sticks. I forgot all about putting candles in ae's cupcake...but that's okay. We still sung happy birthday to her before she opened her presents. She had so much fun!!! We are so thankful for great friends!
Here are a few pictures of her morning party:
