Birthday Party

For her birthday party, Olivia pretty much wanted a repeat of last years party. She was very excited to count down the days until her party. Unfortunately we kept postponing it while we waited for one of her friends to get back into town. She was so patient as we we kept having to restart the countdown. The party ended up being a month after her real birthday, but she sure was thrilled when the day finally arrived.






We had a bean bag toss as one of the activities. Olivia really enjoyed that game, but was also eager for it to be over so she could turn it into an ice cream costume for herself.




While Olivia's friend put on the ice cream, Olivia ran over and licked her as if she really was an ice cream.

I hadn't planned on having a pinata at the party, but whenever Olivia would talk about her party she always mentioned a pinata so I decided to make her one.

The highlight of the party for Olivia and her friends was the parachute. We waved it up and down over their heads and they couldn't get enough. We probably could have done that the entire party and they would have been happy.





Although Olivia had to wait a while for her birthday party, she really had a fun time with her friends.
