We had so much fun. It rained though so we moved it to the community center....it was like the loudest thing ever.
We started with Face Painting thanks to my darling friend Angie.
and her amazing husband Larry
This is their son Pheonix, Kate loves him so much.
I made balloon swords and simple crowns (amazing skill set hu?)

Bike pump in action, of course |
Sheresa my Neice is living in Madison and she helped out a ton-she ran from the community center to the house, took pictures and helped some kids not kill each other. Her official job was to run the Fishing Game.
Sheresa also fixed the messed up cake. I ran out of frosting and she improvised so well. This was a carnival birthday and we found this cute Lala Loopsy Ferris Wheel.
see what I mean cool pictures. Kate and Sheena were playing the piano, to add to the quietness of the party.
In the past I have always made birthday hats but this year Kate had a Tiara, Jess can wear it for her birthday too!
Adeetya is from India and is one of Kate's best friends. Sheena is from Taiwan
Anselm looked so great with his Spider Man face Paint.
He gave her a drum, harmonica, tambourine, and whistle to add to the extreme quiet at this point. Kate was so thrilled, her face says it all.
Pheonix's mom gave Kate her own nail kit, she even decorated it with a K and some sparkles. (the balls in the back kept the little babies busy during the party)
Jess was so sad that she didn't get to open gifts...classic
what a mean mom to even let her cry enough to get this picture. She got a lot of love.
Drake, who is the Rock Star of the world turned all the buckets from the bean toss game upside down and started playing drums with Jess and the drum...ok can you guess what it sounded like now????
Emily is so pregnant so she got to be in charge of the bean bag toss. (Angie and Emily and I watch each others kids. We've become great friends, our kids all get along so well and our husbands all like each other too. RARE.)
Spencer was in charge of the cotton candy machine, Hit of the party but super slow, he was threatening the poor kids.
Maka and Lizzy had so much fun painting their nails with Kate's new polishes
Adli gave Kate a bunch of fun coloring stuff.
"He's such a good boy" says Kate. Kate painted his face.
Mary and Kate are both tall girls in their class and so sweet in primary. Mary is always so kind to share all her toys with the girls when they are babysat.
Wills is the one with the balloon, his mom is holding his walrus. He is in preschool with Jess and his brother Adli is in school with Kate.
This is the only picture of Griffen I have, he was the oldest kid there and one of Kate's favorites, he came up to Spencer and me and said thank you for everything, what a doll.
darn it this is the only pic of Will I got but he is the most darling boy. I got the next photo of him at my house a couple days later.
when it was all said and done, she was pooped. Happy Birthday darling Kate we love you so much!!!
