there are now a pair of six year olds in the house. during the many snow days of the past few weeks, we transformed corners of our home into a winter wonderland for their birthday party.
there was crafting galore for the kiddos : decorating their own placemats with wintery stickers, making snow globes, crafting ornaments from pipe cleaners + beads... everything they made was nestled into their goody bags (along with a few more wintery goodies). there was lunch + cake pops (snowmen, of course) and mitten cookies (using my favorite recipe). to deal with the sugar rush, they had an indoor snowball fight, and a freeze dance that had us all laughing ourselves silly. it was a wonderful way to enjoy an afternoon with friends and celebrate being six. six!
the votes are in, and the snowflakes + snowfall garlands are staying up until spring. xoxo
