Annie Party

We had lots of fun celebrating Annie's 5th birthday with a unicorn theme! She had requested the theme long before her bday party was anywhere close, and I was all in with such a popular, easy theme! Very cute, especially if your aspiration is to be a unicorn trainer when you grow up!  

On Saturday May 25th, we had family in early for lunch. Here is Annie all ready for her party!

Hip Hip Hooray!

Bush family came down from Kentucky for the weekend. Aunt Mae is always so good to make a cake for the theme!

Unicorn basket full of candy!

So nice Grandma DeWitt can come down and be part of all our little celebrations. Here is Annie with her gift from Grandma.

Sweet 5 year old girl!

Grandpa and Peggy gave her a new bike-she was ready for the next size up!

 Her old one was way tiny!

Trying out her new bike!

Yay for unicorns! It's cake time!

The table! We just did afternoon swimming and snacks/cake.

Annie and best bud Nora Kate

Henry brought out his snow cone maker and took orders

We had a pinata per the bday girl request!

She got some great gifts from her sweet friends!

Buddies!

The next morning, on her actual bday, we got donuts for bfast!

She opened gifts from us. Henry gets really into making cards, and he even folded up a few dollars and put in there for her. He gets to make $, but her $ earning system isn't quite to the same level has his, so he knows she is always wanting $ and hooked her up! We gave her a cooking kit and and her "big" gift was a (kid friendly) digital camera.

Family stayed until Monday morning. We went to church all together on Annie's bday. These cousins sure do love each other! 

During the week we had our school friends (3 families) over for a swimming play date to continue the celebration! We just ordered pizza and made a few treats. Super easy to have a second party when you've done all the work for the first one! Check out these 3 admirers....some of Annie's best buddies! 

Here's the whole gang! From L to R: Ellis, Henry, Reid, Ruby, Aidan, Connor, Piper, Annie, John Lane...not sure why Owen isn't in that one! He was around!

Annie and Connor

Reid and Ruby...the "R's!"...check out Reid's arm around her. I sent this pic to his mom shortly after and we had a good laugh!

Opening some very girly gifts from all these boys!

We played pin the horn on the unicorn. It was a fun gathering yet again! Happy birthday, sweet Anne! You are blessed with so many family and friends who love you!
