Birthday, fun, sleepovers and games! WOW!

One fun and CRAZY Friday!!!

We decided that this year My Darling would be able to have a birthday party with her school friends.

This was a pretty BIG deal to her :)

Our theme:  OWL's

So mommy and My Darling started looking for 'OWL' ideas.  

We had so much fun planning her party TOGETHER.

So, here is the highlights of her party!!!

Pretty table!

We ate the items many owls eat.

I Loved making the owl lanterns!  They turned out adorable.

Yummy food!!

We added an owl fruit with the other owl food -- gummy worms, Swedish fish and pretzel fish.

Yummy punch!

Fun games!

We played a OWL beanbag game.  I made owls for each of the girls to toss!  Yes, they each got to take one home. My Darling and I LOVED these!!!

This was lots of fun to make and PLAY --- and YES, I put the words on wrong and did not realize until it was STUCK in place.  Oh, well we still had fun!

Painting!

 Painting the pottery owls!

The girls are very artistic!

One of the finished products.

Dinner!

Stuffed crust pizza for dinner.

Gifts!

Dessert!

 Our fun Owl cupcakes!

Up close!  They tasted yummy!

The girls got to take their gifts and fun home in these AWESOME bags that My Darling and I decided on and had my cousin make.  They turned out GREAT!  Each of the girls signed their names on EVERYONE's bag!  

One of My Darling's friends spent the night.  Oh, they were just so excited.  There was LOTS of giggles and fun!

When the girls left at 7:30, MD had some of his friends walking in for ALL night gaming fun --- with a few movies as well!

They had so much fun! 

I do have to say --- 

Girl parties and WAY different than boy parties.  

ALTHOUGH

Both are fun -- boys are less work although they EAT WAY MORE!

I am so thankful that our children have some GREAT friends that enjoy celebrating and having fun together.  It really is such a relief as a parent to know that your children have some GOOD friends!
