Leah's Friend Party

We have usually had a big Halloween B-day Party (and its always a lot of fun), but this year we changed things up. Leah invited five of her friends and cousins. Mason was the only boy :) Leah told the girls that Mason and her have been "best buds since they were babies" so he had to come, too cute!

We went to the watch Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. It was really fun. They all got popcorn, candy bag and water. They sat through the whole thing, no potty breaks and no complaining. It was a great time. Leah loved being with her friends.

After the movie we had cupcakes and presents. It was a little ghetto, but Leah didn't care and the other kids didn't either. It was the right amount of kids and the right amount of gifts and the right amount of time. On the way home we took Mason home and then listened to a CD that Gabi and Mason had put together for Leah. The girls were all dancing and singing along. They had a great time!

It was not super warm outside but the kids didn't seem to mind. I think we might make this the new b-day tradition....


... well, next year will be a big one since she will be turning 8! Until then, we have great memories of this b-day. Best of all Leah was super happy with her celebration. Its great to see she has good friends!


Thank you to Dave for taking Mylo and Milli while we had fun and Aunt Sarah for helping me out with the girls!!!

How fun. I love that idea. Is kind of bittersweet watching then growing up.

It seems like a fun, fun afternoon. I'm glad all the girls (especially mine) were cooperative and nice.

It looks like all the kids had fun. She is such a cute girl Laura. I wish we lived closer together so that we could see each other more often!
