• Snow White Birthday Party

  Somewhere along the line Alexandria decided that she would have a princess party every year, and she would just choose a new princess for each year’s theme.  Snow White was the lucky winner for this year.  And thanks to some web decorating tips (thanks to Jackie for the great party ideas link), we had a really cute Snow White party.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  The cake table…before we had the cake on it.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  She got to open a couple of presents before the party.  This one is actually the topper for the cake.

  

  

  Blake’s gift to Alexandria is wrapped up in that giant quilt there.

  

  

  

  

  

  I’m sure that Papa never thought he’d be helping with the decorating for a little girl’s birthday party, but he cut these wood pieces up for us.  They looked great!  And once the party was over, Blake has had quite a bit of fun with them too.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  When I was sending out invitation to the party Alexandria kept saying to me, “Make sure you invite Grandma Foiles (who brings Alexandria’s favorite dessert, homemade ice cream) and Avaryn.” 

  

  

  

  

  

  

  After all of the gift opening was over, the kids performed a small play about Thanksgiving.  The night before we’d read the Berenstain Bears book about Thanksgiving, and he was inspired by their Thanksgiving play.  He spent much of the morning before the party working away on his play ideas.

  And after the play, there was some bouncing in the basement!

  And the big bouncers!
