Party Time!

I can't believe that my sweet Grace is already 5 years old! Five feels like such a milestone...the end of "the early years" and the beginning of really being a big kid. We couldn't let such a big birthday pass without a big celebration! Grace had very specific ideas of what she wanted her party to be like this year, and we did our best to make it happen. Twelve of her girlfriends came over for a My Little Pony party. It was her first "drop-off" party...another sign that my baby girl is growing up! The weekend before Grace's party, my mom was at a woman's retreat and commented on how much her granddaughter would love the decorations for her birthday party. And look at what she came home with! The night before the party, my mom came over, and we hung these up to surprise Grace in the morning. They added so much fun to the house! Posing in the party room before her friends come.
We had so much fun playing games,
doing crafts,
and eating ice cream sundaes! (Grace was very specific that she wanted NO cake at her party!)
She got so many fun presents and has been very busy playing since her party.

And, of course, there had to be a pinata. Grace's face when she hit the pinata was hilarious. I think she may have some pent up aggression she needed to let out, and whacking away at that pony was just what she needed!
Such a great group of fun, sweet girls! Grace is really blessed to have so many friends that she LOVES!
