This years birthday day theme....Candyland. Let me just tell you that I love throwing theme parties. I especially love throwing these parties for little girls. Face it, girls get into parties way more than boys do!
Cailey loves to play candyland and what kids does not like oobers and goober of CANDY???What a day we had planned out!
We first hand delivered the giant lollipop invites to 10 very special little girls....
Then the planning started!
I knew I wanted to have a life size game board (Now this party could have gotten really expensive or stayed very easy. I chose to stay on the cheaper, easier side). For each character spot the girls had to do an activity. We had 10 girls and divided them up into two groups with one large dice. A little easier to manage.
One stop was the candy necklace making station. Each girl got to make there very own candy necklace to wear eat during the party.
Another stop was an ice cream cone game. Each girl had to race against each other to stack as many ice cream scoops possible before the time ran out.
Last stop was the pinata, but all the girls had to wait until everybody made it through the game board.
Of course you can't have a birthday party without presents (and one little brother who can't stand not being away from all the excitement)!
And a candyland birthday cake. A few girls did not want any cake until they saw the surprise inside...

I had my wonderful mom, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and niece there to help at all the stations so I was free to roam and take pictures.
