Molly's FRIEND PARTY

Molly was BEYOND EXCITED to have five friends over to help celebrate her "real" birthday.  I brought the girls home from school....and we had a little party at our house from 3:30-5:30pm.  The time went by REALLY FAST!!!!  The girls made two crafts, played musical chairs, had some snacks and ate cupcakes.  The also played dress-up, polly pocket wall party, Monster High Dolls, my little ponies, etc.  They were busy....but had so much fun!  None of the five girls wanted to leave when Mom or Dad came to get them.  There were no squabbles and all six girls got along great!  It was a a fun time for Molly and her friends!!!

 All set and ready for the party when we left for school....

Turning FIVE is tiring!!!!  Molly snuggled in with Papa Michael and fell asleep.....with her glasses on....she was exhausted!

Molly's 5th Birthday

We celebrated Molly turning FIVE with a Monster High themed birthday party at our house.  All six of Molly's grandparents were there....along with the Henry, Fern, and Petitgout families.  Molly had a wonderful day.....and was VERY SPOILED!!!

Gingerbread Houses

Grandma Jackie had all the grandkids (minus the Mulgrew's as they weren't home) over to decorate gingerbread houses!  All the kids had a great time and it was fun to see all of the ideas they came up with!!!!  Each family decorated a gingerbread house to take home!  The girls worked fairly well together.....we have some PINK & PURPLE on our gingerbread house!

 A table full of candy and fun!
