Pool Party!

We Celebrated Paige's birthday over the weekend. Her birthday is Wednesday, but with our crazy lifes, we thought Saturday would be the best. I found a great place to have a pool party! We found some beach balls for the invitations and wrote all the information on the beach ball.

Here's the pool cake I made. How fun we had making this. All the kids loved this and thought it was so cool.

Here's them having fun!



These were the party favors. I found some fun dips and gatorades and put "thanks for taking a "dip" with me today" .


Paige had so much fun. She was able to invite 12 girls and by the time they were done swimming, they were all so tired. I thought they'd be yelling and screaming and running all over, but it was dead silence while doing the cake and presents. Then they perked right up after having cake. Happy Birthday Paige!

Was that jello for the water in the cake? Please tell how you did it. So cute!

You are so awesome! I think you need to make a book of all the great things you do and sell it at Walmart(I'm there every day so I could buy it!) Your kids are lucky to have such a fun mom.
