We had a rainbow party for Aurelia’s 4th birthday. We invited just a few of her closest classmate friends from daycare,Jackson,and then we had some older children that are friends from other connections that came,as well. They all played together really well and had a great time. For food,we grilled hamburgers,had orzo salad,colorful veggies and fruits,strawberry cupcakes with strawberry icing,and homemade strawberry ice cream. With help from some special friends who arrived early and helped me finish setting up,it all went smoothly. The birthday girl had a great time,and she received some really enjoyable presents.
A rainbow dress to fit with the party theme. The dress has french seams on the strips and the bodice encloses the skirt edge,so there are no exposed edges (I love it when I can figure that out – such a nerd,I know.)
Aurie opening her presents! I was almost too busy to take pictures until some of the guests left,but here are some pics of the ones that stayed later. Marcus and the boys hanging out/on! at the table.
Angie and Ivera helped so much with clean-up. There wasn’t anything left to do once they left!
Birthday girl having a pageant to try on her new dresses. The older girls helped her change,would announce the new style,and had her all decked out!
The guys played some video games and then Marcus showed how to play one of his favorite computer games.
Playing with new toys. The bubble scepter was a big hit,and made great bubbles – you never know with those types of toys. Jackson gave her some puzzles,and she set to work right away putting them together once the house was quiet. She could do the Winnie the Pooh puzzle all by herself!! It has 25 or so pieces.
