Today was Emily's 5th birthday party with seven of her closest friends! This was her first "friend" party and it was a huge success!
 |
Such a BIG girl! |
The day began with waffles with mommy, and then Auntie JuJu coming over to help get ready for the party, and bringing Emily her big surprise gift...A NEW BIKE!! Aunties ARE GREAT! Emily LOVED it and LOVES that there is even a seat for Doggy on the back. We tried it out in the garage for a while, but it is going to take Little Miss Emily a while to get the hang of peddling. Emily had fun helping set up for the party too! She had fun practicing one of the games over and over and tried very hard to actually show her friends how to play it when the party was going on. It was too cute!
When her friends arrived they were asked to draw and write something about Emily that they thought was special. Now those pages have become a book for Emily written by her friends. They said the most thoughtful things about my little darling! In case you don't know, in the movie Beauty and the Beast, Belle LOVES books, so we had lots of book-related items for prizes. Then we moved on to the circle game that was kind of like musical chairs, but walking in a circle around the characters from the movie while we listened to the song form the movie! Everyone got a prize for this game. FUN!!!
From here we moved on to the rose hunt game. Auntie JuJu had hidden a big fake rose for each child around the house while we played the other game. When they were told to, all of the kids were let loose on the hunt for the rose with their name on it! The first to find their rose got a Barnes and Noble gift card. After each other child found theirs, they also got to go pick a prize from the prize table!
After this we let Emily open her gifts, and then the excitement of the pinata! After this fun, fun, fun, it was time for cake, ice cream, and singing. When everyone was finished with cake, it was time for all of the kids to just PLAY in Emily's play room! Everyone had a BLAST!
After everyone left, we played with her new playdough set and had dinner. Then Emily got snugly in her new sleeping bag and watched Clifford. She lasted about 30 minutes and then was asleep the minute her head hit the pillow! A big day for a very big girl! More to come tomorrow at her party at Grandpa and Grandma's house and her gift from Nana at church!
Enjoy!
