Birthday Bash

The girls celebrated their 7th birthday (a few days early) at Color Me Mine pottery studio on Saturday...it's a paint your own pottery place.

The theme was puppies, but that was really only for the plates and cups - the cake was pretty traditional. They had such a good time.

Each girl had to pick one piece of pottery to paint....they had a choice of a horse, bunny, starfish, cupcake trinket box, sea turtles or a dog...and I must say the majority of them chose the horse and cupcake. Except for McKenna - she chose the bunny.


Sydney, Hannah, Katie & Alex

All of the girls did such a great job creating their masterpieces - all 13 of them - and really had a good time doing it.


The party crew

After they were done painting, we had ice cream cake (yum!)



Then it was time to open presents! They were so happy - they each got FOUR webkinz (this makes 12 total for each of them!), lots of arts and crafts, gift cards and a few "real" toys.


The loot!




On Thursday - their actual birthday - we will celebrate with family and more cake after dinner. Oh...and let's not forget cupcakes for their class!!!
They've been getting cards and presents in the mail all week - it's the birthday that never ends :-) But they love it and it's fun enjoying it with them.

Happy Birthday (early) Alyssa & McKenna - I simply cannot believe you're almost 7 years old.

Seven years old already -- it's amazing how fast the time goes. And what a great idea for a birthday party -- I'll have to keep that one in mind.
