Hosting Another Birthday Party

It was a rough week last week. So I invited Stella and her family over for dinner on Sunday. It turns out Violet’s birthday was the next day so her mom asked to bring a cake. Ally and I spent Sunday morning decorating a little to celebrate Violet’s birthday.

I made the paper banner, and Ally created the rainbow display complete with sun and moon and heart. And she drew a really nice card, a picture of she, Stella and Violet having a picnic under a rainbow.

Ally wanted a sign. So we got out the big paper roll and I drew the bubble letters and Ally painted them in.

Violet and her family were so surprised we decorated.  After dinner the girls went outside to hula hoop. Becky commented on how funny it was they each had a hoop that coordinated with her clothes.

I could not stop grinning – both Ally and Stella could hula hoop well, Stella was very elegant, hands out in a dance like way and Ally is quite athletic and straight forward about it. I have it on video.

Finally it was time for cupcakes and singing!

It was so nice to spend the evening with our friends.
