Etta had her birthday party the Saturday before her real birthday. It was strange celebrating her birthday before she actually turned 7 but it was to accommodate her first gymnastics competition scheduled for the Saturday after her birthday. I didn't want to have a huge party at the house or any other location so we decided to have a few girls come for a sleep over. Of course there were several more people she wanted over to celebrate with her a few more over for the party only. Lots of hyper little girls (plus one boy) running wild all evening!
The bounce house hasn't been out of the closet for a long time. It got tons of use at the party. |
We created a Monster High game, Pin the Earring on Operetta. |
Chloe's turn |
The girls' art teacher (Amazing Star Girl) came to face paint! She used a picture of Operetta to customize Etta's face painting. |
Etta as Operetta.
Chloe as Abbey Abominable.
Everyone finished!

Big smiles for all the presents.

It was a late night at our house that night. I think all the girls fell asleep by midnight and were up at 7:30 the next morning. We made a special pancake breakfast and started calling all the parents. We were thankful for Martin Luther King Jr day the next day. We needed the extra day for recovery. But, it was worth it seeing all those smiles and hearing all the giggles.
