Carly's 5!


THESE invitations were put in balloons with the kids names on it....

They had to pop them to get the invite. There was supposed to be candy and ribbon in them too, but I just couldn't figure it out :)

There were a bunch of booths like a carnival. They were:
Bounce House (rented)
Slam Dunk (Make a basket, and win a ball)
Hot Dog Stand (Lunch)
Super Soak 'em (Buckets of water with colorful sponges to throw at eachother)
Fruit Loop Fashion (Fruit Loop Necklaces)
Colour (I made mini coloring books with a picture of carly eating a cupcake on the back with "Thanks for coming" printed on it.)
I would dare say that the SNOW CONE booth was the most popular. We rented it from the bounce house place. It cam with two flavors, and the snowcone cups. Everyone came back for seconds...thirds...fourths (you get it) Baby Sienna even enjoyed a little fruit loop snow cone! Frank managed to sneak a few too...
Since I was sure there would be some adults, I made sure we had "grown up" food too.
There ended up being 28 kids and 11 adults at the party...I think the biggest one we've ever had, and probably the biggest we will EVER have! Still...It was surprisingly kick back :)
Happy 5th Birthday Carly!
