The Big Bash

This year for her birthday Olivia wanted to have a slumber party! Being the wise mommy that I am, I quickly suggested we have an "almost" slumber party! Or in Olivia's terms, a pretend slumber party! Here were the invitations...


Olivia awaiting her guests!
Eight of her closest friends enjoying a pizza dinner, complete with Pirate's Booty and fruit kabobs!

A little silly string and running around outside to burn off some energy!
After we came inside the girls were pretty sweaty. It was 6 p.m. in July, in Texas after all! So we went upstairs to change into PJ's!

Then it was back down for cupcakes!

I love Olivia's expression here, I can just see the fun and excitement in her eyes! This little one starts counting down her birthday they day after she celebrates her last!

Finally it was time to retire to the media room for present opening and a showing of Thumbelina! We actually managed to get all 9 girls still and quiet, if only for 20 minutes!

The gang!
Campbell, Ayva, Emma, Olivia, Kennedy
Macy, Ally, Maci, Casey

Olivia had SO much fun and the girls were surprisingly really, really good! There were no arguments, they all got along so well! Denny and I were so shocked at how smooth it all ran and how quickly 3 hours flew by! Olivia is so very blessed to have such sweet, sweet girlfriends!
