Rebecca's flower birthday party!

We had Rebecca's birthday party today. We know it's a month early, but we have had very bad luck having her parties on her actual birthday, as it is right after school gets out and very few people can come due to vacations, invitations that don't make it out of backpacks until it's time to go back to school in August, etc.. In past years we have only had two or three people attend. So, we figured if we had the party before school got out we would hopefully have more girls attending. We did! There were ten girls here this Saturday! Yea!

Our theme for the party was flowers and we had a great time! There were flowers EVERYWHERE! The girls made flower pens, decorated notebooks with flower stickers, made flower candy lollipops, and we gave them flowers drawn on shrinky-dinks and then we shrunk them down and they strung them on a necklace with beads. They had a great time!

I made Rebecca a big, huge flower cake and she blew out all eight candles! My friend, Andrea, came to help me with all the activities for the girls and I really appreciated her help! It was a lovely afternoon and Rebecca had a great time!
