Abby's 6th Birthday Party

Surprise, surprise Abby had a Frozen birthday party like very other little girl this year!  She doesn't even really like the movie she thought it sounded like a good birthday theme for a December girl.  Unfortunately it rained the night before and was still a bit drizzly in the morning so we went to plan B and moved everything inside.  It was busy with about 20 girls and moms in the house but we managed and the girls had a blast!

We turned the dining room into a crafting station where they made snowflakes and then their own creations with stickers and paper and all sorts of stuff I threw on the table.  I love to see what they come up with.  It kept some of them busy for quite a while.



We played pin the nose on Olaf.  The girls ran the game themselves and just rotated the blindfolded beanie and attempted to get the nose on Olaf.  They were so cute and had so much fun watching where everyone put the noses.

Of course the kitchen is always a good meetings place.  Lots of food and fun!


After lunch I took all the old Halloween candy and split it into 4 bags with a box of graham crackers and icing and split the girls up.  Each team went to a different areas and spent 30 minutes creating gingerbread houses. 






The final products...

And the big event- Cupcakes!


And presents!  I tried unsuccessfully to get the kids to move back.  They were like magnets to Abby opening presents.

Another successful party in the books! Happy 6th birthday to our Abby girl.  We love you to the moon and back!

Happy 6th Birthday Abby!

It is crazy to think that Abby's birthday was almost 6 months ago ( life has been a bit busy).  She looks so much different now that she is missing most of her front teeth! Better late than never, I guess. We had quite the week of celebrations for out little girl.  

On Friday I brought treats into class and they had a little celebration at the end of the day.

We had an early celebration at Corvette Diner. This is the kids' favorite for birthday dinners!  It might have something to do with the shakes, giant cotton candy, balloons and all the attention! 




Abby wrote her thank you notes- this one was for uncle Andy.  It is AMAZING to see how much she has grown as a writer..I need to document more of their work!

We also celebrated at Bucca de Beppo with the 4 of us.  Another fun, crazy place that is associated with birthdays for our family. 




Buddy the elf and brought Abby a cupcake and set out her presents the night before her birthday.


Zack was a very good helper and was so patietn watching Abby open presents.

She really wanted a sewing machine and she has actually used it a few time but we should use it more!

Money from Great Grandma and the Zanes.

And her favorite, bagels!

We had a great time celebrating our favorite 6 year old!
