Somebody had a birthday…

It was a while back, but it was fun!

The party theme was Hawaiian Luau…so we decorated cupcakes with umbrella picks…and had grass skirts, leis, and tropical flower clips for all the girls…

They had lots of fun with the games Bethany planned, and this sequence of pictures makes me laugh every time:

Looking at their faces – especially the girl on the left – so fun that they can still be little girls even though they’re going into 6th grade!

Only about half the girls we invited could come, which is the problem with a summer birthday, but these are 5 of Bethany’s good friends:

They also had some fun on a homemade slip-n-slide:

And she blew out her candles:

We have changed our family tradition to going out for dessert on one’s birthday, rather than going out for dinner…trying to save money, you know…anyway, she chose Cold Stone and it was definitely a yummy treat!
