April 2011

Lily turned 6 on April 18th and she wanted a Littlest Pet Shop Party. Soooo, we tried to deliver. Here are Sean and Lily sucking helium and getting ready for the party.

The guests arrived and "adopted" a little pet shop pet at the Adoption Center to take home with them. They decorated a home with markers and stickers, and filled out an adoption certificate naming their new pet.

Here is the treat table. I tried to make the snacks to look like or relate to pet food: sunflower seeds, Reeses cereal, goldfish crackers, animal cookies, gummy bears etc. I even put some in pet food bowls. 

The first game was Cat-tail chase. The kids had yarn tied to their waist with 5 little balloons dangling behind.  Then they ran around trying to pop each others tails.

The next game was Tidy Cat. I hid tootsie rolls in a container of sand (kitty litter) and the kids had a relay who could scoop the most. Gross, I know.

Then of course a parrot pinata, complete with gummy worms and egg candies inside.



Here are all the party goers. I think they had a good time.


Lily wanted to paint animal faces on the kids but we didn't have time, so Sean and the girls had a little after party fun with it.

Holly endured the whole shebang like a champ.

Here is cute Daisy being, well, Daisy.

April also entailed the "Good 'ol Days" in our little town. Lily and her school mates got to be in the parade. This is her buddy Chloe. Daisy got to be a part of it too and really worked the crowd with her fairy wings and waving.

The festivities after the parade included rides, LARGE lemonades, balloons, cookies, brownies, and crafts.






Easter 2011
The Easter bunny left a trail of foot prints and carrots to their goodies.

A baby pillow pet was the main prize. How did the Easter bunny know they matched their big pillow pets? He/She is so smart!

Mmmm, Peeps at 8am!

Holly in her Easter dress.

After church.

My 3 girlies!
That afternoon we went to the D'Penha's for Easter lunch/dinner. I have never seen so many plastic filled eggs in my life (This is just the first minute of Daisy's findings). The kids made out like bandits.

Just a cute pic of the girls wearing hats custom made by Lily.

Lily can't get enough snuggles from Holly.

Such imagination! I think I would have been stumped for Lily's party, you did great. I can't believe she is 6! I remember when she was Holly's size! Time flies.
