We had Emily's birthday party yesterday at her dance studio. Which meant NO HOUSE CLEANING OR YARDWORK in preparation; YIPPEE!! I won't go into the details of some of the beforehand drama, but let's just say that neighbors and a brother stepped in to help get things squared away and the show was on...
Here's the party-goers (minus one, who wouldn't come in for the picture)
food tables:
Here's the cupcakes I decorated to match the theme:
There was lots of dancing (they got a 45 minute dance class) and twirling and leaping and whatnot (ignore the blur, those girls were FAST!)
And then we sat down for cupcakes and goodies (each girl got a cupcake and then got to load their plate with cookies, candies, crackers, etc)
Then Emily opened presents
Then we handed out goody bags and packed up to come home. I think it went really well overall, and Emily LOVED it (which is the most imporant part). I could be very tempted to never ever have another party at home ever again!!!!!

That looks like it was a blast!! And it sounds like it was just perfect for Miss Emily! :) XOXO!! Glad everything worked out with the few bumps in the beginning.
Looks like it was a great party! Great cupcakes.
What a perfect party for Emily. LOoks like she really enjoyed herself. Is that her leaping through the air? She has a great leap :)
What a beautiful girly party - I think she must have had a wonderful time - I'm so glad!!
Happy Birthday to your sweet Emily.
See you soon - Kellan
That does look like sooo much fun!! And why wasn't I invited?? lol. And she did a great job on picking the theme :)
How fun! I love the idea of not having to clean the house or do yardwork. I'm going to have to remember that idea for my kids. :0)
How cute! Looks like the perfect party for your little princess! Good job on the cupcakes.
How nice! Happy birthday day!Love the cupcake holder. :)
GREAT idea! I LOVE birthday parties away from home! ;)
So adorable! looks like everyone had a wonderful time! What a fun idea for a party! Great job on the cupcakes, too.
How cool was that party! And, the no cleaning / gardening thing was a huge bonus! But it's not like you went overboard... Some parents are crazy with what they do for a birthday party! This was a really great idea. Plus, I'll bet she'll remember that for a long time. I'm impressed.
