G's Friend Party

G's birthday party for her school friends was the Saturday after her birthday. We were planning on having a paint party at our house but rain was threatening so we moved the festivities next door to my mom's house. We filled their conversation pit(a sunken seating area in their living room) with balloons.

I made a rainbow cake.



We painted magic wands in the garage.

And did some volcanoes there as well but quickly moved that table into the yard.



We had a rainbow pinata which I didn't get any pictures of, just video. Her is Vivian holding the aftermath.

Nanue and Aunt Bob did some face painting.

Here is the birthday girl feeling like the queen of the castle.

Singing and cake.

Birthday with Family

Nanue and Big Papa came for G's birthday and brought some great gifts. Lots of art supplies to keep us stocked through the year.

They got put to good use right away.

We went to my mom's house for cake and more presents. I took a break from baking and let Sams Club take care of this cake. They always do such a great job.

G got some new sparkle shoes because her other ones were wearing out.

And more art supplies.

Georiga's School Party

G's birthday fell the Friday before Easter this year which is also Earth Day. Her school had an Easter party and Easter Egg hunt plus a party which we wrapped into a birthday party. Here she is hunting eggs.

Her birthday was a rainbow theme this year so I made rainbow cupcakes for her class complete with gummy ladybugs since it was Earth Day.
