Maddie's Friend Birthday Party!

Friday was Maddie's Princess friend party. We decorated the house with streamers, shiny material, Disney Princesses, balloons, and even a red carpet. I'm not sure what I was thinking inviting 11 girls and planning lots of games, lunch, crafts, and dessert while Andy was at work and Sophie wouldn't nap and Garen was mad about all the pink and princesses.

But it turned out nicely and the girls were so fun and well behaved!

The guests arrived at 11:00 and we had the princess singalong songs on until everyone arrived. We started with some games, like pin the crown on the princess and guess that princess.

Next was lunch consisting of flower and heart sandwiches, flower Jello jigglers, strawberries and grapes, and pink lemonade.

After, the girls decorated crowns and colored princess pictures. They turned out very cute. We have some very creative 6 and 7 year olds.

Presents came next and her friends gave her some amazing gifts! Including:
-The Hannah Montana surf shack
-littlest pet shops
-Barbie beach pool
-a doodle bear
-new coloring book, markers, crayons, books, paints, stickers, and chalk
-Thumblelina doll and dress up shoes
-play makeup, hair accessories, and purses

After presents we whipped out the ice cream cake. Andy came home for his lunch just in time to cut the cake for us.

Then we played musical pillows with a hidden pea (green ball) under one until the parents came.

Here's some of the pictures I got. My friend took more for me since I was busy most the time. I'll post them on here when I get them.

The invite made by my friend Brenda who is a graphic designer. They turned out cute! We rolled them up and tied them with ribbon and attached a card that said Princess _____.
