Friend birthday party

Courtney wanted a pretty relaxed friend party for her 12th birthday.  She decided to have a movie night the day before her birthday and watch the original Parent Trap.  These were the invites we took around to her friends.


The girls showed up in their pjs and brought pillows so they could relax and watch the movie.  
 Courtney's really crazy in the "make a weird face" picture.

The movie took a while to hold their attention so they were talking and generally being loud girls.  Then they started telling each other to be quiet so they could hear.  I couldn't believe how much noise a group of 5 girls could make.  But it was probably our fault because we had popcorn, soda and M&Ms for them to eat.  So maybe it was the sugar?!

When the movie finished they had cupcakes and ice cream (really, everyone was too full of junk that they didn't want to eat them so I sent cupcakes home with everyone).


Courtney then opened presents:



They still had time before parents would start picking them up so they played games.  Poor Ethan was drafted into playing with them but the games were confusing so he wasn't sure what he was doing.  They played "BANG!" and none of us really understood it.

The Beehive advisor wanted to decorate our front door so I was trying to tell them when a good time would be.  I ended up texting her and saying that the girls were so loud that she could come over anytime and decorate the front door and they wouldn't even notice.  Courtney loved it when she saw it.

It was a fun party!
