Gigi Turns 5

Gigi had a little "garden party" with a few of her little friends.  She chose the theme so there were lots of "garden" related games, flower pot painting, flower and butterfly decor and dirt cups instead of birthday cake.  This was seriously the best kid birthday that I have ever been to and I consider myself an expert at this point in my life thanks to 6 nieces and nephews!  These children were so well behaved- there wasn't ever a disagreement and no adult ever had to raise their voice.  That's a birthday miracle!
 Baby made some adorable snacks that had crackers and grapes but looked like butterflies, there were veggie cups with ranch for dipping, popsicles and "dirt cups" that each child got to customize to his/her liking.
 The kids all seemed to enjoy painting little flower pots.  Incidentally this is the only picture that I seem to have with the birthday girl in it and it's of her backside!  Oh well, she had on a really adorable outfit!
 Munchie came up with an inventive way to paint the bottom of her pot.

Little bit enjoyed all of the attention that she received.  She stayed up for the entire party and loved getting passed from person to person.
Bab made this spider web game out in the driveway and the kids all wanted to do it over and over again. There was also a treasure hunt, the kids dug for buried treasures in the sandbox and then a game of freeze tag where E and J Man acted like bees.  If you got "stung" then you were frozen.
