B's Friend Party

She got to invite 7 friends since she was turning 7 . . . 2 didn't RSVP and 1 got sick the hour of the party. . . B cried when that call came - but luckily the others started to show up and she dried up the tears. I felt bad that I didn't try harder to find out if they were coming or not so she could invite other friends (she had a list of who she wanted to come) . . . but there is only so much a mom/party planner has time to do this time of year.
Plus with B's 2 siblings and 2 other siblings - there were enough bodies! (:

But no parents/nannies stayed - so it was just me and D and the kids = little stress to impress adults! Kids are easier to please! (:I think they all had fun decorating their houses. Could B have fit anything else on this house???

Little Dinner . . .

Pin the ornaments on the tree was a success - I think every branch got one! (:

Then presents and cupcakes and ice cream.

I hope she remembers this year's party as fun! Being that's it is close to Christmas - I purposely try to make my girls birthday's special so it doesn't seem that their birthdays get lost in Christmas. I appreciate all those that came to help celebrate her birthday!!!
