Olivia's Birthday Party


Here's Olivia (middle) with friends at her birthday party. They're waiting in line for the pinata.





Lots of fun presents, a pink cake, decapitated pinata, and onlookers. (you can click on the pictures if you want to see them bigger).



Decorating wooden animal shapes.
When Olivia gets an idea in her head, she is not easily swayed. So we went through with the "kitty and sheep" theme, her favorite animals (of the moment, anyway). I found wooden kittens and lambs and they were occupied for a long time decorating those, then we did the pinata, and had to hurry to fit in the cake and ice cream and gifts before the party ended.

OK Larissa, that gives me hope. Where did you get all those kids anyway?! We've been here for 2 weeks and poor Ben doesn't have a friend to his name. But hopefully by birthday party time...

I think Olivia and Evie must be kindred spirits. i imagine they would hit it off. I love the kitty sheep theme. Awesome!

Looks like fun. I'm glad she got what she wanted. I think you could have gotten more carried away though. Where were the sheep costumes, and the pet kittens for everyone to take home? Maybe next time.
So, Ethan wants a dragon party. Any ides?

Larissa, looks like a lot of fun. SG really had a good time. The sheep and kitten cutouts were a hit. Thanks for sharing the photos.

P.S. We have a blog as well, feel free to stop in anytime.
