A Day of Parties

The Sunday after Kelsie's birthday we were invited to two of her best friends' parties, Sophia and Abbie. Luckily the first one was Sophia's and was right next door, so we were able to make it to both of them without having to rush around too much.



Sophia's party was a princess party. I didn't think Kelsie was going to participate too much, because as usual when she saw that there were more people than just Sophia and Ms. Heather there she clung to me and didn't want to do anything for the first few minutes. Once they started the crown and wand projects she finally decided she would give it a try. It was so cute to see all the kids making their crowns and wands and then dressing up as princesses and there was even a prince at the party (Nick). Kelsie and I both had a great time and she dressed up along with the rest of the kids, which really surprised me since she hardly ever wants to play dress up at home. It was such a cute idea for a party and everyone had a blast!



Next it was Abbie's party. Her party was Tinkerbell themed and it was very casual, but still so much fun. Abbie's cousins were there and they both went out of their way to make Kelsie feel included in the festivities. They played pin the tail on the donkey, chase, and there was even a pinata. Kelsie tried it all, but decided that she really didn't like hitting the pinata. Instead she wanted the bigger kids to break it open and she just wanted the prizes inside! We stayed there until almost dinner time and then it was time to head back home.

Kelsie had a blast at both parties. She didn't even seem to miss her nap that day at all. However once we got home I could tell she was tired from all the excitement!
