party on!

Cailey felt MUCH better after a nap yesterday around noon and for the rest of the day. This morning she was still feeling great..so the party was ON! She asked all day, "how many more hours until they get here?" and could hardly wait:). Cailey decided that SHE wanted to decorate her cake this year with a Snow White figurine and candy...to make it fancy. After SEARCHING and SEARCHING she couldn't find Snow White and decided it would be fine to just get LOTS of candy and make it fancy. (I was THRILLED to let HER decorate the cake...much less stress!:) The girls came in the early evening and made their own pizzas, decorated cups, got their nails painted, decorated candy bags, played a FUN candy pot game, ate cake & opened gifts, went on a CUTE scavenger hunt, watched Snow White, ate snacks, read Snow White, and went to bed. I am not sure what time they are going to fall asleep, but as of now they are still up (10:40) whispering in bed. Cailey was bummed about Suzy not being able to come...but thrilled that Rebecca and Lindsey could come! (AND now she gets another sleepover with Suzy sometime soon.) It was so fun to have the girls over and truly a blessing to host them! I must say though...we had SO much fun; it'll be HARD to top this one!


blank cake...pretty cake...SOUR candy







although mom doesn't remember it, i used to play this at my
parties when i was a kid. the kids were SO encouraging to each other
and just as excited when someone else found the candy...they were screaming,
cheering, spinning, and jumping up and down!





auntie anne went to the store to get the candles...
we decided to trick Cailey and put one trick candle!
the girls were SO confused but thought it was funny:)

Wow! What a fun time! You're right....there's NO topping that party. One that is still going on this morning. You are amazing -- my party limit is two hours. :)

Sleepovers are the best. Why do we not have them anymore when we grow up?
